Information concerning the Ain’t Think or Thoughtless proprietary protocol, which is under development by 1518&projects, is presented for the purpose of discussing ethical implications within neurotechnology. The protocol’s proprietary nature limits independent verification, and its claims should be considered within the context of ongoing ethical discourse:

  • Protect mental privacy and cognitive liberty: Safeguard individuals’ control over their own minds and the information within them
  • Prevent the indiscriminate leakage of brain data: Mitigate the uncontrolled spread of sensitive neural information
  • Prohibit unauthorized mind reading: Ensure that access to an individual’s thoughts requires their explicit consent
  • Uphold the right to bodily autonomy: Empower individuals to control the use of their own brains and neurotechnology
  • Affirm the right to refuse coercive neurotechnology: Ensure that individuals cannot be compelled to use or participate in neurotechnologies against their will
  • Reaffirm fundamental human rights: Uphold the inalienable rights of freedom of thought and conscience
  • Detect and prevent unlawful interception: Identify and thwart illegal access to neural data
  • Prevent thought policing: Safeguard individuals from any attempt to control or manipulate their thoughts or beliefs
  • Reafirm the right against self-incrimination is a fundamental legal principle that protects individuals from being compelled to provide information or testimony that could incriminate them in a criminal case

 

Mind-reading and mind-hacking technologies raise profound ethical and legal concerns. Existing human rights laws and legal principles provide a basis for addressing these concerns
