At a certain stage, people will even be able to share physical experiences.

It's not that far away! Paraplegics are already moving cursors with computer/brain links.
There will be a time where a new kind of "connection junkie" could exist. I fear that.

There is a possibility of connecting to networks less invasive than direct neurologic connection but that I reserve for my novel. You'll have to read it there... if ever it comes out!

I agree that neural connection for people with disabilities is too slow in coming. They should be the first to benefit from this.

I believe that a consciousness has a basic right to accept non-input.
Ban commercials!!!!
