Facebook’s algorithm, I learned, isn’t flawed because of some glitch in the system. It’s flawed because, unlike the perfectly realized, sentient algorithms of our sci-fi fever dreams, the intelligence behind Facebook’s software is fundamentally human. Humans decide what data goes into it, what it can do with that data, and what they want to come out the other end. When the algorithm errs, humans are to blame. When it evolves, it’s because a bunch of humans read a bunch of spreadsheets, held a bunch of meetings, ran a bunch of tests, and decided to make it better. And if it does keep getting better? That’ll be because another group of humans keeps telling them about all the ways it’s falling short: us.

[Visual Dictionary] Brain Waves on Killer Acid http://ift.tt/1TrSOqD
« We asked some of our favorite artists to visually define some ideas and genres we felt had a big presence in 2015. Rob Corradetti, a.k.a., Killer Acid, injects mind-twisting style into the world of brain wave art by outfitting the cranial organ with an EEG scanner. With a portfolio that ranges from album artwork for the Black Lips, to Wiz Khalifa, and even Mac Demarco, to multiple satirical comic book series, Killer Acid has drawn a lot of brains. Now they can talk. »

Neurodata and Neuroprivacy: Data Protection Outdated?
Abstract
There are a number of novel technologies and a broad range of research aimed at the collection and use of data drawn directly from the human brain. Given that this data—neurodata—is data collected from individuals, one area of law which will be of relevance is data protection. The thesis of this paper is that neurodata is a unique form of data and that this will raise questions for the application of data protection law. Issues may arise on two levels. On a legal technical level, it is uncertain whether the definitions and mechanisms used in the data protection framework can be easily applied to neurodata. On a more fundamental level, there may be interests in neurodata, particularly those related to the protection of the mind, the framework was not designed to represent and may be insufficiently equipped, or constructed, to deal with.

App Stores for the Brain: Privacy & Security in Brain-Computer Interfaces
Abstract — An increasing number of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) are being developed in medical and nonmedical fields, including marketing, gaming and entertainment industries. BCI enabled technology carries a great potential to improve and enhance the quality of human lives. It provides people suffering from severe neuromuscular disorders with a way to interact with the external environment. It also enables a more personalized user experience in gaming and entertainment.
These BCI applications are, however, not without risk. Established engineering practices set guarantees on performance, reliability and physical safety of BCIs. But no guarantees or standards are currently in place regarding user privacy and security. In this paper, we identify privacy and security issues arising from possible misuse or inappropriate use of BCIs. In particular, we explore how current and emerging non-invasive BCI platforms can be used to extract private information, and we suggest an interdisciplinary approach to mitigating this problem. We then propose a tool to prevent this side-channel extraction of users’ private information. This is a first step towards making BCI-enabled technologies secure and privacy preserving.
Excerpts
IV. PRIVACY AND SECURITY ISSUES IN NEURAL ENGINEERING
B. Neurosecurity
In 2009, Denning et al. [21] recognized that “the use of standard engineering practices, medical trials, and neuroethical evaluations during the design process can create systems that are safe and that follow ethical guidelines; unfortunately, none of these disciplines currently ensure that neural devices are robust against adversarial entities trying to exploit these devices to alter, block, or eavesdrop on neural signals”. Potential security threats that can be mounted against implanted neural devices were identified, and the term “neurosecurity” was introduced as “the protection of the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of neural devices from malicious parties with the goal of preserving the safety of a person’s neural mechanisms, neural computation, and free will” [21].
(classical) Brain-Computer Interface attempts to use brain signals to drive suitable actuators performing the actions corresponding to subject’s intention. However this goal is not fully reached, and when BCI works, it does only in particular situations. The reason of this unsatisfactory result is that intention cannot be conceived simply as a set of classical input-output relationships. It is therefore necessary to resort to quantum theory, allowing the occurrence of stable coherence phenomena, in turn underlying high-level mental processes such as intentions and strategies.
