How might the Internet be controlling our minds?

The Internet will influence our minds just as everything we see throughout our day such as billboards or TV ads (Gao, L. 2010). Due to the Internet being needed more and more its influence on the users becomes even greater. Whether the Internet “controls” our minds however is a far more difficult question to answer. Due to the Internet giving us the options but the final move will always be ours. If all of our choices are through the Internet then I guess in a way it will.

Are neural implants the way of the future?

This is an extremely controversial topic because there are many people out in the world that would be against this such as the Arish. Personally however, I do believe that if we are able to advance our technology to the stage in which it is able to be a neural implant it will be the way of the future for the majority of the world.
