Perhaps we will have a personal IP addy.
Forbes.com: John Zogby's firm polled people about whether they would want implanted chips for various purposes. 13% wanted chips for Internet access, 25% wanted a chip that gave immunity to disease, 23% wanted a chip giving access to knowledge and just 6% wanted entertainment chips. Males were as expected more open to enhancement than women, younger people are more open to the idea of entertainment, internet or knowledge chips while everybody were about equally interested in immunity chips. According to Zogby, Democrats were more likely to want chips than Republicans, likely because of a co-correlation with religious adherence: non-churchgoers were more likely to want chips than churchgoers.Why would we expect males to be more open to enhancement than females? Females have not shown aversion to artifice or enhancement of their bodies for competitive advantage or personal expression.
I'd take the knowledge and immunity chips, but not the net or entertainment chips. A jack for software upgrades would be helpful. The only real security is physical security. If you are net connected then you will be hacked. Not if, when.
