So if you don't have ISK to spare or don't want to have an expensive head to lose, use a jumpclone or don't use implants.
First off, I'm only talking about learning implants here - not combat implants.
Jumpclone means that you aren't always pvping - I pvp almost every day.
Right now, I lose my 2 +5's maybe once a year, it's pretty affordable. I'd like to roam around 0.0, but I'm not willing to slow down my character progression to do so (bubbles == fairly sure pod death if you're looking for an actual fight vs a gank), so I stay in lowsec.
Ofc, this raises a small issue with pirate implants and learning - but the learning and effect can be decoupled.
But what I've said before - if people want 0.0 to be the hard hitting can't use learning implants pvp land, alright. Thankfully, there are other parts of the game.

implant losses are stupid only at 0.0 where you allways lose pod to a bubble. pod should be immune to bubble warp disruption.
I like it, but I wonder if that would screw up 0.0ers sense of owning/restricting access to space.

Here is how this works. Today they want their implants. Tomorrow they will want their implants and modules. The day after they will want their implants, their modules and their ships. WTF kind of game would that be? A very very sad kind that the loud majority of us will not play.
There's an important distinction here however: Learning implants help speed up when you can fly new stuff - it's character progression. I don't think anyone is trying to keep any combat implants safe - just learning implants.

Don't paint this implant thing as a carebear perk - It's those people that pvp frequently as a lifestyle that are most affected.
If I was primarily a carebear, I wouldn't mind the odd jaunt into 0.0 with an empty clone. But if I want to log on and roam a few hours most nights, I take a *big* hit to my training speed.
But again, if what is expressed here is the general 0.0 feeling, then as JShaft pointed out - I'll just keep my rifter in lowsec for my pvp, it's doing pretty alright as is.
