It’s the ISP cutting the Ethernet by opposing net neutrality so they can force you to use their overpriced cable TV service. An inverted mockery of the traditional “cord cutting”, just as the image depicts.

Non invasive BCI capable of the exact stuff neuralink has demonstrated has existed for a while and its probably a much more viable way to help the disabled than cramming chips into their head.

There certainly is a history of attacking Apple over their use of encryption. I wonder if they're still mad they didn't get that iPhone backdoor they wanted.
