Description
Recent investigations by international organizations such as UNESCO and the UN Human Rights Council into the detrimental effects of neurobiology have raised disturbing questions as to the power of this technology. This includes non-invasive techniques that can decode brain activity and extract information. Given that technology in the security sector is often many years ahead of what is publicly known, the implications of these factors reveal a situation where the brain is increasingly becoming transparent to security actors. This has opened up new ways in which the brain cannot only be read in terms of thoughts and emotions but also written to. The ability to write to the human brain so inducing involuntary thoughts, emotions and actions into innocent subjects opens up a terrifying new realm of surveillance, manipulation and torture. The effects of this new form of control including the psychological breakdown of the targeted individual and the complete deniability of those responsible replicate that of previous forms of surveillance including the organized or gang stalking of targeted individuals. This paper represents the first steps towards an investigation of this subject that may reveal the ultimate extension of sovereign power into new neurobiological domains.
