Abstract :
We believe emerging BCI privacy concerns call for a coordinated response by engineers and neuroscientists, lawyers and ethicists, government and industry. Ideally, devices, algorithms, standards and regulations can be designed to mitigate BCI privacy problems and ethical challenges. The first step towards doing so should be an open discussion between ethicists, legal experts, neuroscientists, and engineers.
