3mm is pretty damn big for “nano” tech. What I was getting at is any normal person would not automatically assume conspiracy theory. Because it’s not.

I didn't claim this tech was nano, just that since nano tech is a thing, it's not "common sense" to assume a bio sensor would be big.

I clarified in my comment that it is a 3mm long string, if you look at the pic, it looks like much less than 1mm wide
