While rumors about that a grisly surgical process makes this possible, and may still exist as the "budget" way of doing things, a convenient, portable, more-or-less concealable scanning/recording/downloading device has now been brought to you courtesy of your friends at NT! Originally developed for their own corp cops for everything from enhanced interrogation to undercover observation, it is now available to YOU on the above-board market for prices almost anyone can aspire to affording.
42.2 What are some societal implications of memory grafting?[/QUOTE]
Take a solid
Strange Days base, add a liberal dollop of
Total Recall and blend on high. Forgetting anything is a thing of the past, wealthy sybarites exist paying top dollar to experience the good parts of the lives of others instead of doing anything themselves, false memories can be implanted so seamlessly that even the victims of elaborate enough frame jobs think they're guilty, you name it. Collegiate and internet philosophers inclined to ask what reality even is have of course been having a field day.
42.3 Name and describe one or more top current "Mem Stars" and the sort of experiences this new class of adrenaline-addicted, possibly masochistic celebrity is notorious for.
