Brain signals recorded by a gaming headset or a wellness gadget could one day be used as evidence against you in court, according to a new UN report which warns that neurotechnology is outpacing the laws meant to protect human rights.

I'd use an open source brain interface, maybe, with built in options to disable it at any time should I wish so. Basically a brain interface as we might imagine it in star trek. I know that likely won't ever happen and if Brian interfaces ever become a real thing I know it will all be corporate controlled, so yeah, ain't happening
