Speaking about the genesis of the Company’s implantable RFID microchip technology, PositiveID’s CEO, Scott Silverman remarked, “To date, I believe that this is one of the greatest technologies of our generation.” The market is huge and growing.

Quote from one of the comments below the article

Just because the public didn't want it doesn't mean they still won't get it somehow. I do not believe the chip "blinked out of existence;" rather, I think it more likely blinked out of sight.

The Pentagon has been keen on this chip for some time, and there may be other interested parties. Remember that we are already being mass-medicated with the fluoride in our water...

Also this chip is several states IDs and drivers licenses also it is in pass ports so there is not much victory here.
