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.

          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.
