I’d totally be up for getting the whole cyborg treatment. Mind you, I’d be very critical of who puts what in me. I’d rather die than end up with a Black Mirror/Elon Musk/Mark Zuckerberg - advertisement firm inside my head.
I’ve met a couple of cyborgs (assuming we don’t count birth control/hormone regulation implants as technology, which we should do because they are). One was thrilled to be categorized that way (she has a pacemaker) the other was not (nerve inhibitor for pain, doesn’t work very well).
So yeah I suppose it also depends on the goal and if the tech is friendly enough to achieve it. In the latter case, it doesn’t work because it’s very difficult to charge the battery. What a dumb reason to be crap implanted tech.
I used to think this and nowadays I’m paying attention to all the people making the machines.
I’m all for getting borg’d out, but I don’t trust anyone to make the things I’d want to put in/on my body. You know it would all come with a data miner and a subscription fee.
Don’t threaten me with a good time. I’d gladly be more machine than man.

Caution is very much warranted.
Little late for that, innit?
A sleek, feminine killing bot.

I think we would have a wicked cool FLOSS option out there, somewhere. It would probably run off of a modified linux kernel. Don’t lose hope!
A machine is more human than these dipshits
