Will you have to establish a third category?

The aim of the implants we are talking about is not of "re-engineer" the
brain, but transmitting the data of the brain waves into a computer which
deciphers the thought patterns of the target. External manipulation of
behaviour and thought processes can be done externally without the need of
brain implants, by pulsed EM at concrete frequencies or simply by
brainwashing.

Who is talking about possible benefits for the victim?!

Here you'll find a letter sent to the former pr. minister John Major by a
Swedish organization of human rights, plus two testimonies -one of them
related to the above document:
