I’ve met a couple of cyborgs (assuming we don’t count birth control/hormone regulation implants as technology, which we should do because they are). One was thrilled to be categorized that way (she has a pacemaker) the other was not (nerve inhibitor for pain, doesn’t work very well).

So yeah I suppose it also depends on the goal and if the tech is friendly enough to achieve it. In the latter case, it doesn’t work because it’s very difficult to charge the battery. What a dumb reason to be crap implanted tech.

Caution is very much warranted.
