Not that I'm aware of, however the technology is already there, pre-built into your phone. It's commonplace for search warrants to be issued for your phone data in an investigation, which include everything from your search history to where you have been, via satellite and GPS. Hell, its how Google maps works, it pings your cell phone location and depending on how many signals there are in a given spot, gives you the traffic data. It's not that everyone WANTS to know every bit of information on a person, but the capability is there.
Well, that’s not entirely true either. If I want to sell you a product and know that most of the people that have already bought the product watch a specific movie or series, then I absolutely want to know if you are watching that movie/series so I can target you with an advertisement. Likewise, if I know you are using Ubereats, then I can target you with ads for specific restaurants or products that are often selected by ubereats users.
So, it’s not so much that anyone cares what you specifically are doing when and where, it’s that they want to be able to categorize you into a demographic that can be targeted in variety of ways.

Everyone is worth microchipping but only when everyone else is also getting microchipped, basically no one is worth any sort of effort by any group individually.
However, forcibly microchipping the bodies of individuals is much more expensive with much less return than just using the readily available options already in play. We (as a population) already give up so much info—even when we believe we are being careful.
People think it’s just Facebook and google that are watching you and if you use a VPN and stay of the socials you’re safe. But the image is constructed from much more nuanced and varied sources.
Even if you eschew credit or debit cards, if you have a bank account, or utilize any bank/store/post office for cashing checks or buying money orders your location and activities are noted.
