"What would you give for a retinal chip that let you see in the dark or for a next-generation cochlear implant ... a memory chip, wired directly into your brain's hippocampus, ... an implanted interface with the Internet ..."

As long as I don't have to "give" anything to remain free from implants, I'll watch the technology with interest, and maybe consider something when it's perfected and fully under the user's control.

If on the other hand, there is any effort to impose this sort of thing on unwilling people, there will be widespread violent resistance (a prediction, not a threat).
