Magnet allows you to detect oscillations of EM fields, not quite as radical as going from blind to sighted. you can also pick up paperclips.

RFID chip will bring about the apocalypse in 3 or 5 years and could also unlock your car and stuff.
Both implants may prevent you from getting an MRI scan and both will probably reduce lifespan.
which is strange because MR US immortality/transhumanist party had one fitted recently

Another prominent stream of biohacking is the Grinder movement.[2] Grinders practice DIY, biopunk, and open source transhumanism. "Grinders are passionate individuals who believe the tools and knowledge of science belong to everyone. Grinders practice functional extreme body modification in an effort to improve the human condition. [Grinders] hack [them]selves with electronic hardware to extend and improve human capacities. Grinders believe in action, [thei]r bodies the experiment".[8] The Grinder movement is strongly associated with the body modification movement and practices actual implementation of cybernetic devices in organic bodies as a method of working towards transhumanism.[2][4]
