I ended up writing a proposal for an extended piece of writing about the ethics of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and whether they are currently in a state where we can consider them to be ethical. I used the following references to gain insight into the nature, privacy, security, and ethics of BCIs.
I am personally intrigued by the potential of BCIs and had done some research on them in the previous academic year. I was planning to write an essay last year on them before changing to light fields, but I thought I might want to write about them next year in an extended piece. So I used this proposal to outline the ethics behind BCIs, and then maybe next year I can rite an extended piece on the ethics and more.
