One of my OC's (Kaltrina/Cereza) Semblance is a neural link with a specially-made small computer chip that she's installed in her tech. My question is - would he be able to control the tech despite her own efforts, would they have their own sort of mental tug-of-war over who control the tech, or would her chip-neural link then provide him with a way to control her (as she mentally connects to technology)?

My guess would be the second - and she'd probably find it really hard to keep him from controlling her stuff simply because he's so much older than her and has more eperience.

Sorry for butting in, but I'm a bit questionable about that Semblance since neural links with technology are not considered "natural abilities". Unless in the case with Technopathy, then there would be no need for a chip at all. It's not a two way feed unless there's some way two minds are connected on neutral ground so to speak. In this case I think The Evil Within or The Matrix program would be an appropriate reference. But in any case, if the chip were hacked in to, then yes, but not without resistance from the character in question.
