I think the difference is in the scale of the effect.
People with pacemakers are told to avoid magnetic fields.
Not many people hack Teslas.

The comparison is with the future when brain implants for virtually
everyone as they merge with AI will make future populations dependent
on the devices.  When a device becomes necessary for a
complete population, security becomes very necessary.
