I hope that they make them as hack proof as possible.  Otherwise, I can see the headlines: "Quadriplegic team robs bank".

I would love to see that in an episode of NCIS or Criminal Minds.

Well, it's already been proven that such chips can be infected with computer viruses. A man purposefully infected the chip in his hand to show this, and also showed how the virus jumped from his hand to the security system his chip works with.
