Try to look at the picture you painted from the practical side. What exactly you have to know to do that practically?
how information (knowledge and reflexes that assemble a skill) is stored? Unknown. And nobody even trying to reserch that.
Where the paths you need to connect to goes? Unknown. And nobody even trying to research that.
Where you will get information to upload? Unknown. And nobody even trying to reserch that.
And so on. You clearly see that "mind manipulation" or whatever is out of question.
I'm in doubt they will be afraid of something that is so far from reality. I think it is something much more simple.
What do we actually know in the area of connecting human neural system to computers? How to read simpliest pulses and send simpliest signals. It is enough to make prostetic hand, low resolution kind of eye implant, move mose cursor or somehow unpredictably disturb some basic feeling (pleasure/fear/pain/whatever) neural node. But they are already afraid of that.
I suppose, authority/megalomaniacs in the worst case want to implement a simple award/punisment interface to humans. Using just simple activation of pleasure/pain neural nodes.
OK, that's what looks like what they always do. Seems legit.
Now, let's try to imagine, how that things could be a threat for them? Just a random assumption. Do you know how many money laundered through all that funds that "helps" blind, death, disabled people? What if all that problems suddenly disappear, like VHS tapes and horseshoe industry?
So, would they risk to lose huge and profitable business in exchange to highly questionable way to control very few sheeple who are so dumb to agree for "neuralink implant" that there are no any need to implant anything, and honestly I'm in doubt that kind of sheeple have an organ that neuralink supposed to be implanted into. :)
Why can't they just help me till the fields and plant the spring crops, run the irrigation lines, fix the fencing, feed the chickens and milk the cows?
Get down in the earth. Connect with nature. Depart from government authorities and lawfare tricksters and greedy bankers and mad "scientists" more worried about creating a Frankenstein creature than actually helping mankind with the utopian heal the paraplegic idealistic picture you paint.
I don't trust Elon Musk. His entire fortune is built upon government grift. How many billions in subsidies has he received from federal government?
His role is more likely your enslavement. Through satellite technology or exploding battery powered cars that shut off when the government tells them to, or putting chips in your fucking brain. It's not for some mythical "greater good." Everything we've learned from experience teaches us better than to believe that.
I don't care about Elon Musk. How he is different from some Monsanto owners or BigPharma guys? They personally can't force you to use anything they produce or do not allow you to use their products. It is the authorities who have a power to do it, not them. They could bribe authorities, but it is only authorities decision to take that bribe or not, to side with that bastards or to side with people. And more important, it is authorities duty to oversee that megalomaniacs and greedy bastards.
So, without subbmission of authorities in the first hand it is mostly senseless to hate or love big business. For obvious reasons you can't do anything serious to big business, especially if authorities in on its side.
You have to find a way to mitigate authorities first. Their orders, laws, rules, control, everything that give them power. And here, even things all that Elons Musks enterprises produce could be easily used.
Elon produces cars that could be disabled by authorities anytime? That's nice! That means you could do that too. Car electronics does not care who send command to shut down and who is inside at all. So, with Elon's cars you getting a bit of power over authorities who use that cars. And avoiding authorities power over you is just not buying Elon's car.
Theoretically - yes.

Just one of numerous variants.
These fuckers want to play god.

Something like that.
