      Sure, you’ll get that… Along with ads for coffee subscriptions.

    Always use adblock, dns filter and malware scanners. Also check your privacy settings regularly and inspect network traffic to your “Smart Brain” (I just invented the term).

    I imagine scenarios where you can’t get rid of annoying advertisements everywhere, even in your dreams. Or people being remote controlled. Or their bank accounts emptied.

    However, this currently is just science fiction.

    I could see that. Implanting AI chips in your brain doesn’t seem like a great idea.

    Yeah thanks for the warning. I was about to put a computer chip in my brain with no concerns about privacy.

      This was exactly where my mind went.

      Like… sure. I can see the merit of an article titled “Top 10 reasons not to drive your spaceship through a star.” But I think we’re a bit far off from that. 😆

    People here don’t seem to realize how dumb people are. Most don’t care about their privacy at all, and the usage of meta testifies that. They won’t actually consider that their privacy is at risk from brain implants, without educating them we’ll get another meta situation

    Imagine you early adopted Neuralink before Edolf went mask off and then introduced ads and now all you hear all day long is Kanyes voice chanting: “Elon macht frei.”
