Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.

Even if this is true, I'm never going to allow myself to be microchipped. The day they start chipping people here, I'm going to pack my bags and move somewhere where it isn't required. If they try to stop me, I'll just find a way to get out illegally. I view the idea of involuntary microchipping as a violation of individual human rights.

^^ I thought much the same. The only potentially positive aspect of such a plan that occurred to me was that such a device could provide incontrovertible evidence in the event of a psychiatric or medical malpractice lawsuit.

Creepy, but not surprising they way we keep willing giving up our privacy for "safety". Sadly a few more "terrorist" attacks might convince the idiotic sheeple that make up the majority that this would be good. :x
