Cognitive Liberty and Responsibility
Posted by Zack Lynch
Wrye Sententia spoke on the work being done by the Center for Cognitive Liberty and Ethics (CCLE). She argued that the U.S. Constitution's framers innately understood that mental freedom actually precedes freedom of speech in terms of an individual's right to privacy.
In regards to coming neurotechnologies she asserted that it is an inherent American Right to have freedom from them and freedom to them. Audience members agreed with the caveat that their is an equal right to be responsible.
Watch the neuroethics debate with great interest, it's important to us all.
