"Companies from start-ups to tech giants are developing wearable devices...that record different forms of neural activity — and will give manufacturers access to that information. The privacy of this data is a key issue...All but one of [18] firms reserve the right to share that data with third parties. “I would describe this as predatory,”" #neurotechnology #neuroethics #BCI

Things we should be concerned about:
- hiring and firing decisions
- insurers' choices
- discrimination regarding neurotypicality
