That's so far into the future that we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

  On the audio side, it's not a stretch to imagine cochlear implants (or hearing aids) having an undetectable recording ability.

    AFAIK some wireless buds can work as better hearing aids, they just don't have the medical device label to officially perform that function.

      Some even have that label: https://support.apple.com/en-us/120992 https://support.apple.com/en-us/120992

  You really need to look into what people are doing with prosthetic eyes. Here's a dude from 3 years ago adding a flashlight: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/yblzi4/guy_turned_his_eye_into_a_flashlight/ https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/yblzi4/g... And I'm pretty sure I saw one who added a laser to theirs for raves, but can't find the link :) You can buy very very tiny cameras today off the shelf, the main problem would be just packaging either a storage medium or wireless transfer capability + power inside the eye. With government-level budgets it's doable, possibly even by a skilled maker with resources.

    AirPods knockoffs are mass-produced. They contain power and RF comms in a package that's significantly smaller than an eye. The only problem with prosthetic eye camera I as a half-skilled home-lab owner would have is how to not ruin the source prostetic. Which is trivial - just buy a dozen and practice.

  It's so far into the future that it overflows the temporal coordinates and is actually a few years into the past now.
