I'm not surprised given the person in charge, but I still feel bad for the guy. Being almost completely paralyzed, it makes total sense to jump at the chance to get some normalcy back.

I didn't expect 85% of the wires to already detach at this point. In a just society, the whole company would be shut down and the CEO put into a bottomless pit.

yeah you're right I was lazy and didn't re-read the article when I posted it. But since she had effective medication she could take to stop them when the implant predicted them, its a bit potato potato. She got them under control in a way that was impossible before

I didn't know that about cochlear implants... geez
