I don't understand how one could think brain implants is a totally safe invention for a society. Did you consider more possibilities than just manipulating people into to physically attacking others?

I doubt me giving suggestions is worth the effort here. I worry thoughts and beliefs could be manipulated with enough knowledge of the brain. Technology to interact with the brain directly is a revolution of the manipulation already enacted through our eyes and ears.
