I thought the adrenaline glands were not in the brain.

First of all, some things, because you are starting to show some blindness:

1-Whoever chooses to receive Mind Implants, would be aware of what they are doing. It's their own choice, at least in most cases, and as such the responsibility is theirs.

2-Like I said, Mind Control is unrelated and unnecesary. Sure, someone can use, say, a Mind Implant to perform some kind of mind control, but that has nothing to do with it, it's something else entirely. If someone uses implants to control, it has nothing to do with the implants themselves, but with who uses them to control others. You can't blame the implants nor the people who took them because how would they know someone would think of controlling them with the implants?

Receiving implants or augmentations, and someone controlling others with them, are unrelated. The first is for the good of the people, depending on how you look at it. The second is someone abusing them to get a selfish reward.

3-Nothing forces soldiers nor civilians to take mind implants. Or what, you think they wouldn't let their loyal soldiers just receive stronger arms and legs, or an Adam Jensen-sque "eye sunglasses"? Just with that they can already be effective, since other than the obvious they will be more confident and have better morale, making them already better soldiers.
