Violence erupted in the Neon Quarters this morning as hundreds of citizens stormed a memory stabilization clinic, claiming they had been implanted with false childhood recollections. The riot left twelve injured and two facilities destroyed before Peace Enforcers reestablished control.
The instigators, many of whom reported identical memories involving a fictional school called “Oberlyn Academy,” allege that Lucid systems modified their neural histories. Jeffery Hodgson issued a brief denial: “Lucid does not tamper. We only preserve.”
However, resistance researchers now believe a faulty overlay filter may have synchronized an archived memory construct across multiple civilian neural nets. Whether intentional or accidental, the outcome has sparked renewed protests over cognitive sovereignty.
