Hack Me! The Girl With Magnetic Fingers

Lepht is a 'transhumanist', someone who wants to improve the quality of human life through technology. Over the last eight years she has performed 50 surgical procedures to implant microchips into her body, including inserting magnets into her fingertips. We follow Lepht on her latest quest: upgrading a microchip in her hand so she can make contactless payments. Is Lepht's so-called 'biohacking' paving the way for future human integrated technology, or is it simply futile self-harm?
