I would definitely not use any technologies that use internet or can be hacked remotely. But I would accept some that would help my life significantly.

    I’ll take a cybernetic heart. I was born with a heart defect, and one heart attack was enough for me. I’d love to know what it felt like to have endurance too.

    I’ve seen code. I want nothing.

    We already have people getting implants and companies leave the space for go belly up and you’re stuck with a useless piece of plastic in you. No thank you.

    I would pretty much accept any technology that brings me closer to being a full android or lengthens my lifespan. Artificial brain, tracking tech, etc. I would be willing to accept a lot of compromise for eternal life and I feel this route is probably has the best chance of actually happening within my lifespan. Cyberhorror aspects aside, I figure once the lifespan increases, given an infinite period of time eventually the problems will sort itself out. If it gets too awful I assume I could probably maintain enough control to off myself at some point so it’s all good.

    Also, I know the chances are still very small, fractions of a percent or whatever, but its non-zero and most other avenues seem to be just flat zero outright.
