{Image via Picasa by way of Patrick}Big brother is watching you. More specifically the CTA. I don't know why I was shocked when I heard about this; perhaps I'm not as cynical as I thought I was. The CTA reduced-fare card has an embedded computer chip that records all your trip histories- not surprised there. But school officials are gleefully anticipating on using this card in partnership with the CTA to crack down on kids skipping class and to further monitor students in a pilot program starting this May at Carver Military Academy and Prosser Career Academy. What's next-having school officials embed computer chips into our kids?? I smell a lawsuit...
