That’s a dystopian futurist headline if I’ve ever heard one
Is this a google company? It’s like hangouts for your eyes.
Where’s that dude who commented saying they were excited by the prospect of implantable Apple technology. Lol. One of the companies that perfected planned obsolescence.
A good example of an amazing tech hampered by the capitalist system, and very good argument for open source and right to repair.
It should be mandatory for company to provide support for the lifetime of the implanted device. If they kick the bucket (the company, not the patient), mandatory open source. It’s not like the patent matters anymore once the company’s dead, right?
i really think that it’s going to be one of those things people look back on in history class and are just totally baffled by, like trying to explain the patent and copyright rules will just be a whole lesson of kids saying ‘but that’s so dumb…’ and things like ‘but why did they let one company ruin everything just to keep their mouse to themselves, were they stupid?’
I remember reading this article. Makes me not want to be an early adopter but if I lost a sense I know I would change my mind.
