More DescriptionIn the year 2029, people are allowing neural implants known as chips to be inserted into their foreheads. Marketed as a medical device that will prevent disease and provide health benefits, the chip also tracks everything we see and do. In an Internet of Things world, the chip is celebrated for curing disease and creating unlimited virtual realities.
