It might not be that different from using a social network like Lemmy, you wouldn’t necessarily have to be assimilated (in the sense of losing your identity), but you could more easily put yourself in someone else’s shoes, your experience would be augmented. In an ideal world this technology could give you access to my memories and give me access to yours, we would both know when the other is lying and we could feel what each other feels in the way we feel.

This is denial in that this is a form of control that is slavery with technology.

In short, we will need an open-source alternative to these implants, of course.

I don’t think it necessarily has to be that way. But one thing is certain, it would be a huge transformation.
