Do you have any more info about the crimes/abuses you mentioned? Interested to read on it
There have been some news pieces put out, but most importantly
Now, CNN did link to Nueralink's site, but not to PCRM. That, to me, says a lot about who you they're supporting.
If you want to read PCRMs report, it's here. Because reading the sources is always a good idea.

A couple of excerpts here:
A note about Musk's use of propaganda in the face of truth (emphasis mine):
There's lots more in there and I highly recommend reading the whole article. It is from December of last year, but I'd find it hard to believe that things would have improved in the past 9 or 10 months....certainly not enough to excuse the shoddy work and unnecessary suffering caused early on in the project.

From the article posted in anothers comment:
If people haven't figured out how to mitigate rejection of implants to at least 99% they shouldn't even be attempting this kind of nonsense.
