Did you know that smart chastity belts have been hacked in the past?

    I guess your brain implant will probably kill you before the end of your favourite playlist. Just like all those test animals.

    I’m less worried about hackers than having major corporations have unabated access to stream whatever they want to your brain.

    Imagine to have to watch ads to access your brain music stream or ads while dreaming like Futurama predicted.

        and if you want to stop it you need to pay $9.99/month

        At first. Then within a couple of years they will no longer offer a free version, and even those who pay will be forced to do whatever privacy invading garbage they push (as you say, can’t take it out - the epitome of “captive audience”).

      People will never want chips installed in their brain. There’s just too many scifi movies showing why that’s a bad idea and the tech industry keeps completely ignoring the message and try to make it into a reality.

        I’d hope that’s the case, but I mean, look at artificial intelligence. People are widely adapting that even though theres proof that its going to replace tons of jobs in the near future.

        But hey, “ooh shiny technology”

          Replacing jobs would be considered an immense public good in any sensible economy. Unfortunately, capitalism makes it so you die if nobody needs you to work. Nobody needing you to work is logically a GOOD thing! Why are people being punished for it??

        I hope you are right. I agree, I don’t think I’d ever want one, but one can never know what technology will be available in a couple decades- I’m afraid at some point people will eventually find it enticing and before that, there’s always idiots who would just because.

    I’m not even worried about hacking. I’d be more concerned about the “legitimate” mandatory advertising direct to your brain!

      Elon Musk directly into your brain in 2030:

      Hello all my neuralink users, I’d like to tell you all about why trans people are evil for making my wife leave me and my daughter hate billionaires. But first, a word from our sponsor, Raid Shadow Legends.

    This makes no sense. Isn’t hearing music exactly the same thing? Also, your brain can’t hear music. This is just stupid. Plus this psychopath destroyed numerous test animals in order for them to be able to do this.

      It is possible by stimulating your “hearing nerv” in the same way happening when you actually hear something.

      The one that made me sad was the monkey that just sat with it’s face pressed into the floor because the chip had made its brain infected and it didn’t know how to deal with the pain, poor bastard.
