Reading Response on "A Password Pill?" Upfront Magazine

     In the article "A Password Pill?" The author explains that Motorola, a company that was recently bought out by Google that is famous for creating phones, has been working on a solution for password problems in todays world. According to Regina Dugan of Motorola, "the average person logs into passwords 39 times a day, and it takes about 3.2 seconds each time." They believe that with this edible password pill, they could change the whole idea of passwords in todays world. They want to create a pill that will turn on once it reaches your stomach acid, and then sends signals to your phone and computer. This will make it so you won't have to enter a password on any of your technology. 

     This article reminded me a little of "Be More Chill" by Ned Vizzini, which had a storyline of a teenage boy who ate a computerized pill that fought him how to be cool. This was a very interesting story, that shows how technology has advanced. This could be a very interesting concept and I wonder if this will be a medication that is given at a pharmacy or is it given at a technology store? Also, how would this be approved by safety programs, because it seems very unsafe, and could go very wrong, since it has to do with stomach acid to work. 

     This was a very cool article and I would be very interesting to see how this plans out. u B seems like it has flaws and how come they shoot for the stars, instead of just passwords why not computerized pill, like the Ned Vizzini book. How much funding would this take? And if it is a lot of funding, would they have to charge a lot for this pill. These are all questions that I wish the article had asked.
