…and once again, warnings stating “DO NOT BUILD THE TORMENT NEXUS” go ignored.
Invest in aluminum foil now.
It would be good that shit works for that but I don’t think so… let’s see what happens when the NSA have access to your thoughts.
Edit: I think they will apply the “if you didn’t hide anything then there is nothing to worry about” discourse.
They will just use mind control to make sure you physical can not commit a crime
Maybe it could be possible to connect someone sleeping to the brain of someone else to do mind-control IDK, or do you believe it will be some kind of AI?
It’s concerning how this pseudoscience is getting so much traction, and we’ll be left with a bunch of nonsensical privacy regulation. Granted I’m happy to err towards too much privacy regulation, but can imagine other privacy issues getting less traction.
Maybe this isn’t pseudoscience anymore… I must admit I need to see these stuff working in person to believe it but according to the video this is definetly interesting at least or it could open a new era in human civilization.
You’re going to have to drag my corpse into a lab to put any neuro any-fucking-thing in or on my head.
Maybe it wouldn’t be necessary to do it…
Lots of misconceptions here. Brain waves are just the communication between neurons. This is basically internal wiring, everyone is wired differently. Also nothing gets out of your brain on its own, except heat.
A tool like this can only measure regular patterns between humans and compare them. You will only get are interpretations of your brain status. It can’t read your memories nor know if you’re thinking about eating a burger. At most it will get a “you’re hungry” alert. You can train it to be better at figuring you out (or to do other stuff, like controlling a robot), but you won’t get more without a very invasive direct link to your brain (and more training). Which is more like torture at this point.
This new law is just promoting fear for something they don’t even know if it’s possible or not. Very sci fi law.
Sci fi or not, I kinda want them to get this one figured out ahead of time. It is kinda like assuming that a convicted felon could never be President. You wouldn’t think that rule would need to exist because come on, how could a country possibly want to elect a convicted felon? Its a completely ridiculous notion that could absolutely never happen.
And Im telling you that is practically impossible to read your mind without committing other known already existing crimes. There is a rule already for it, it’s called basic human rights.
When I say sci fi law, it’s because it’s fiction. This new law is against fiction. Your example is for something that’s not fiction. Do you understand the difference? Do you think this politician forwarding this law understands it?
This is more akin to those old laws of banning all alcohol.
Want your privacy? Should force/convince your countries to ban cameras first*.
Is there a downside to having a law like this on the books?
Also, isn’t banning cameras like a mind-blowingly bad idea? That would mean people couldn’t do things like record police committing crimes, hell you wouldn’t even be able to install a dash cam on your car.
Excuse me, what kind of technology…?
Watch the video, there is more information about it.
I just read the article and will definitely be watching the video when I can. What a wild story.
I believe it should work with some kind of brain waves(telepathy?), apparently some kind of device you put in your head and it read information from your brain, the spooky question would be if there is a way to make a device like that to be able to read information from someone’s brain remotely. IDK this looks like a bad idea but anyway it’s already here, according to the information I believe there will be more places where law get updated about it.
Edit: maybe it could be used for interrogation also, I mean you could know if someone it’s saying the truth or not by reading their brain.
Reading thoughts remotely is a no-go, you need very precise measurements of the brain’s electrical activity and that just can’t be done with distant sensors.
Maybe there are people who have more powerful brain waves or something… like some kind of abnormality who can make they more likely to be remote targets…
I’m no expert in biology but the way I understand it our brains all work in roughly the same way, so I don’t think that would be possible.
Yeah TBH I didn’t know a fuck about that, anyway let’s see what happens in the coming years.
