Initially I thought "WTF? MORE big brother in our lives? Great...." but on reading the article in the translated mode >> HERE << instead of poorly in Japanese with some help from my lovely wife I'm thinking that if this stops people from just dumping their bikes, and if it makes theft and reselling a bike much more difficult, then maybe this is not such a bad idea. Of course it will really depend on how stupidly it is implemented, and I have no doubt that if it can be stupidly done....
