One of my favorite B-movies from the '60's . "Cyborg 2087".
A cyborg comes back from the future to stop the research that leads to an
implanted device allowing the government to track your every move.

there's really no need for things like that to be embedded in people - it's
very inefficient. Far more efficient just to have people wear a tag of some
sort when they enter the workplace if there's a need for tracking like
that.
That sort of thing is already quite common, for example in cash offices,
and
I'm sure most of us have cards which let us through security doors at work.
Here in London our movements around the city can be traced from the
smartcards that store our season tickets. Embedding things in people is
pointless.
