Rights Committee has treated it as a right that does not disappear in
emergency. [11]
The technology is new.
The boundary is not.
Neurotechnology can measure brain activity more directly. AI
can infer mental states indirectly from the traces of ordinary life.
Neither method produces perfect access to a mind. Both can produce
power over the person being interpreted.
A prediction of depression affects insurance.
An inference of anger affects policing.
A classification of political leaning affects employment.
A model's guess about intent affects a border decision.
A child's attention score affects education.
An employee's emotional state affects promotion.
The authority does not need to read a thought perfectly.
It only needs permission to act as though the inference is true.
That is why mental privacy includes a right to opacity.
Not the right to hide outward harm.
The right not to make the self fully legible as the price of
citizenship, work, care, education, or love.
The right to say: your model does not know me well enough to
govern me.
The right to refuse a device that monitors the brain when refusal
is possible.
The right to know when mental-state inference is being used.
The right to contest it.
The right not to have a private prompt quietly become evidence
in an unrelated proceeding.
The right not to have a machine's guess replace a conversation.
The mind can be invited into relationship.
It can be educated.
It can be persuaded.
It can be cared for.
It must not be annexed.
The boundary is not a mystery. Protect the mind by default.
Regulate outward conduct through clear, reviewable law.
