The scientist/inventor is NOT responsible for the evils that men do with their creations. It is up to humanity to use their work for the good of mankind. This technology has the potential to be very beneficial, and helps lead the way to even greater developments. If we start holding back technology because of what it COULD be used for, we'll never create anything. I wholeheartedly disagree with Marinus.

They're never responsible for the evil their work makes possible. Smarter than the average bears, they know damn well what their research will probably result in, but, like pedophile clerics in the church of curiosity, shrug off responsibility. At this rate [whether in five or fifty years] government mind-reading will be possible, and then you can bet the boys and girls in white coats will tut tut piously and return to their labs to build the groundwork for new horrors.
