The first-in-the-nation law in Colorado includes biological or brain data in the State Privacy Act, similar to fingerprints if the data is being used to identify people.

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

Seems like it’d be a kind of okay option if you were really stoned and actually spent the whole movie on your phone.

Ouch. At least there’s a plot of some sort, unlike some movies.

Can they do that to the crime that has affected the greatest number of people and caused the greatest amount of lost money? Because that’s wage theft and it’s probably the only way I’d be cool with it.

Not exactly, they can mind control you into being happy your boss steals your wages tho

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?
