I think that the potential of these chips to put abortionists out of business is fantastic.

I think the pipe dream of switching women's fertility on and off like turning a switch is just plain never going to come true. The reproductive system is simply too complex.

We already have long-term hormonal contraceptives - injections and implants - but they don't always work to prevent pregnancy, and their collateral effects are not negligible (to any decent person). In spite of the claim that they are "reversible," all forms of hormonal contraception result in an higher incidence of infertility, either temporary or permanent.

In order to guarantee sterility absolutely, the drug would have to be so powerful that it would either quickly persuade the women to "turn it off" or it would make them so sick they'd do a poor job as sex partners.

Correct answer.

I don't think it's possible for N. Korea not to implement this.

I see the Chinese also implementing this to enforce their one-child policy. To what degree mandatory implantation is implemented will probably only be limited by logistics.
