Privacy concerns raised over brain scans

Doesn't seem much different than a regular lie detector test and they don't seem to have a problem with them

Give it 10 more years and this could actually be a scary thing

Isn't a brain scan a medical procedure and isn't a medical procedure covered under privacy laws? Big brother at work.

Big Brother is trying to restrict itself more?

Jokes on them really, they'll have to find my brain first

I saw this really cool brain scan device on House which cause actually SHOW you on a screen the images a person is thinking. I wonder if that technology is actually available.

I guess if you don't have anything to hide, it'd be fine. I personally don't like the idea of having one as I would not like to find any undiagnosed problems with my brain. That sounds quite scary to me. I know some people would prefer to know if they had something wrong, but I'm unsure on that one myself.

I believe it was Gurdjeiff (or maybe Ouspanski) who said (wrote???) people would behave in entirely different ways if they knew their time of death. :devil:
