credit cards would be abandoned because when you make a purchase, a scanner
simply scans your chip and you are automatically charged to your bank

spy on you even more than they do now. Have any scifi novels been written

In regards to your question Bob I don't know about scifi novels but this
sounds like Demolition Man after they thawed Stallone to get Snipes.
