New technology development can easily push borders of existing habit and understanding of the world. With it frequently new previously unthought borders are openly or hiddenly or unconsciously push and this can adversely affect the human rights. In this presentation the author vast experience in human rights protections is used through different examples to make the point that science and technology in their new inventions and discoveries do not go against human rights. A particular case mind reading devises and the landmark ruling of the Chilean Supreme court against a mind-reading device that will have significant repercussions in regulating such devices and protecting “neural rights.” Analysis is carried out and conclusions are drawn.
