I'm the first to be optimistic about new technology, and I hate how 95% of people on the internet immediately try to rip apart anything new in an effort to prove how "informed" they are. That said, nearly every time I see a story about "brain controlled" anything, it turns out to be simple biofeedback. This has been around since the 1960s. Showing your level of relaxation using different graphics doesn't make it any more functional. Until I can tell the phone who to call using thought, I don't consider it brain controlled.
