I predict a dilemma. On one hand, there will be an offer to become a cyborg with superior intellect. And let's just call this futuristic mind-enhancing technology "chip", to simplify further.
So, on the other hand this chip will contain methods to manipulate thoughts of people. Thus, making thought crime possible. Sex offenders and criminals will be forced to accept this, of course. So if you pee in public, you'll have to have you thoughts controlled for the rest of your life.
On the other hand, as the thought power of intellectuals will be brought further and further forward, their differences and disobediences will also be punished. The consciousness will be merged together. So, we'll have a giant brain made up of intellectually-enhanced cyborg-people that will be able to solve a crapload of problems.

Ok, this scares me. A lot.
