What it does
The bill directs the Federal Trade Commission to study how neural data and related data revealing mental states are collected, used, and protected, then report recommendations to Congress within a year and publish annual updates, backed by 10 million dollars in funding. Based on that report, federal agencies must follow new guidance on procuring or operating neurotechnology, and may not use neurotechnology that conflicts with the guidance starting one year after it is issued.
