That's something else, but Lone Star has experimented with ACO-like
behavior adjustment (see Lone Star sourcebook page 75 and further). In
ACO, the main character, whose name I forgot, is exposed to violent images
to such an extent that gets literally sick of them; Korsakov's treatment
from Neuromancer is a way to make people forget things.
