My point is that if you've read William Gibson's **Neuromancer** (and if you
haven't, well, let me say you should), in a cashless society, once you become
an "outlaw" all they have to do is to cancel your credit chip.

This not only stops you from being able to pay as you go, but can also tell
exactly where you are when you are trying to use it. 1984ish if ya axe me. And
I'm no luddite, either.
