Thread: Scientists Discover Way to Record Dreams...

Stuff like this truly scares me, especially from an ethical viewpoint. Hopefully it won't be abused.

Hope all you want. Some government will abuse this.

This gives a new meaning to the phrase "Don't even dream it!"

Renegade shamans unite! Control your dreams, fight the Man!

I don't think we need to worry about mass-brain-scans just yet. The person had to be inserted into a chamber in order to just get an unclear image...so it's going to be a long while before it's reduced down to something like a headset, much less a device that can scan from a distance.

So personally I'm not scared, even though I understand the possible implications. I'll probably be dead before the technology advances enough to be a threat

Wow! Sure the technology is far away from recording dreams, but this is still really trippy stuff. I don't even know whether I should be excited or scared! Either way, I think this means being a lucid dreamer will become more important than ever

Correction: SomeONE will abuse this. Doesn't have to be limited to a government.
