Vape Cartridges with Built‑in ID

A company (Ispire/Chemular’s 'Ike Tech') proposes vape cartridges that scan an ID and the user’s face, exchange anonymized tokens with services like ID.me or Clear, and use Bluetooth to lock or unlock the device. The plan includes geo‑fencing (schools, airplanes), claims near‑perfect age verification, and envisions licensing the tech for other regulated goods. — If adopted at scale, embedding biometric age verification into disposable products would normalize persistent, vendor‑controlled identity checks and create new privacy, enforcement, and regulatory dependencies across consumer markets.
