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.

Are you tired of dreaming about advertisements? Then get the new AdBlockPillow! For just 99.99 a month it blocks all incoming Advertisements while you sleep!

[–] glad_cat@lemmy.sdf.org 50 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And then an army of shills will tell you that blocking ads in dreams is theft.

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oh I can already see them: "businesses need to make money! Free market will regulate everything so it will be very fair!" I wonder if there is a corpo shill bullshit generator out there

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Not specialised in shilling, but there's a corporate speech bullshit generator

[–] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

GoogleTeslaMetaCokacolaSoft would try to roll out an ad blocker blocker and fry a few dozen brains in a third world country before letting you sleep ad free.

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.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.social 40 points 11 months ago

Especially after the thing with the monkeys..

I was extremely excited about Neuralink, and the premise is so fascinating, but this clown is out to fucking ruin it for everyone.

You mean you guys don't constantly have music playing in your head anyway?

I wouldn't be surprised if the same people who are now excited about this chip are the same people who believe in conspiracy theories like the government controlling their brains and chips in vaccines.

[–] spudwart@spudwart.com 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You know those hackers aren't ever gonna give you up.

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

Never gonna let you down either

People will put IoT into everything, no exceptions. Did you really think it would stop at thermostats and surveillance cameras?

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

I'd be hacking the fucker myself to side load an ad blocker.

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.

[–] Lifebandit666@feddit.uk 14 points 11 months ago

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.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 9 points 11 months ago

Yes, and hackers have been rick rolling people over the internet for a while now.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago

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

RING RING RING RING RING RING BANANA-PHONE!

It's cellular. Modular. Implanted-in-your-brain-odular!

[–] MarcRnt@feddit.de 20 points 11 months ago

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

[–] black_mouflon@beehaw.org 19 points 11 months ago

Not gonna happen. But if it does it will probably be like Youtube and Spotify so prepare to hear ads in your brain if you don't have the premium subscription.

[–] digger@lemmy.ca 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lightspeed fits today's active lifestyle. Whether you're on the job ... or having fun. Lightspeed briefs, style and comfort for the discriminating crotch.

Objects in mirror less attractive than they appear.

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.

[–] patomaloqueiro@lemmy.ml 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

There will be no escape

[–] archonet@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Truthfully I can't wait for Ghost in the Shell to become reality, but I sure as shit don't want Musk and his bullshit to have any part in it.

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 17 points 11 months ago

He's exactly the kind of disconnected super rich asshole to show up in a lot of cyberpunk.

[–] CrowAirbrush@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The what now, chastity belts?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Did those smart chastity belts come with a holster for a Blueberry?

[–] mycatiskai@lemmy.one 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

If a smart chastity belt loses its wifi connection will it vibrates until it gets its connection back?

Just wondering if I should design a crotchless faraday cage for women with controlling fathers so they can still get their orgasms.
