The April 2002 edition of WND's acclaimed monthly magazine, Whistleblower, will be an in-depth and shocking report on implanted biochips, high-tech surveillance and tracking systems now being used on unsuspecting Americans, futuristic military applications, and what may be the end of privacy.
After WorldNetDaily first publicized the "Digital Angel" – a sophisticated miniaturized tracking device intended for subdermal implantation in large numbers of human beings – the manufacturer, Applied Digital Solutions, took cover. Under criticism by privacy advocates, as well as Christians concerned over the biblically prophesied "mark of the beast," the Nasdaq-traded company removed all references to human implantation from its website. Its CEO claimed publicly that there were "no plans" to make the technology implantable, but rather for the user to "wear" the device outside his body, say, on a wristwatch.

But then came Sept. 11, and the resulting urgent national drive to increase America's homeland security. And in this new climate of fear, in which many Americans are susceptible to valuing safety over freedom, security over privacy, the company found its golden opportunity to re-introduce the subdermal microchip implant it had previously deemed too hot for the American public to handle.
But that's just the beginning. The post-9-11 homeland-security environment has brought about a major spike in surveillance and tracking technologies in every imaginable – and unimaginable – realm of life.

In this groundbreaking issue, Whistleblower will explore not only the latest assaults on citizens' privacy, but will highlight some of the truly alarming technologies and applications now on the drawing board.
"You will think you are reading science fiction," said CEO and Editor Joseph Farah, "but it's all real. I implore you to read this issue of Whistleblower to learn about the privacy threats facing you today. Read it from cover to cover. I think you will agree with me that – even though this sounds like Area 51 stuff – sometimes, indeed, truth is stranger than fiction."
