Digital ID is becoming all the rage, but how invasive is it? Amazon's new palm reader is a case in point. It's easy and fast, but so is using a contactless card, so - why? Should we worry about our physical details being stored in the cloud?

The articles says that this technology will initially be used for payments - but I ask, how? How is Amazon going to charge for your purchases using only your palm? Is it going to use an implanted chip, or what?
