Just imagine, if brainwaves could be read. En masse

 

Just imagine if access to ones bank account, access to secure buildings or airports was possible by scanning people’s brainwaves.

Lisa was well aware of current experimentation to be able to see and read a persons intention via brain scans.

 

Far more ranging than fingerprints or DNA, Lisa found that the technology existed and was being vigorously tested.

 

As with all inventions, there existed potential for both good and bad applications.

Orwellian thought police sent shivers through Lisa.
