Really? Haven't been paying attention to the various implants on the
markets have you? How long do you think it will be before wearable
computers hit big-time and become a natural part of how people live
their waking lives? Turning them off when you have integrated these
modalities into your being and extended your senses, memory and so on
with them will be very much like being involuntarily dumbed down.
You are waxing status quo, not realistic. Something I didn't expect
here.
