For centuries, we have operated under the assumption that if you buy a device, you own it. If you purchase a pacemaker, it is yours. However, the neurotechnology industry—dominated by players like Neuralink, Synchron, Blackrock Neurotech, and emerging consumer brands like NextMind (now part of Snap) and Emotiv—has largely adopted the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model.

Users report a phenomenon known as "The Phantom Toolkit"—the sensation of sending a command (e.g., move cursor to the left ) and receiving no feedback. It is the neurological equivalent of screaming into a void.
