Would you trust your boss with data about your brain? California moves to regulate neurotech

The advancing field of neurotechnology, involving brain sensors and implants, raises significant concerns regarding privacy, especially concerning potential monitoring or discriminatory decisions in the workplace. In response, California lawmakers are moving to regulate this sector by extending digital privacy protections to brain data and passing bills to restrict how employers can use such information. New privacy agency rules will also protect people from businesses that utilize AI systems based on brain data for significant life decisions.
