The patents are filed · The companies are funded · The law is not ready

They are building machines to read your mind. Put every one of them on notice.

Neuralink has trademarked Telepathy. Meta ships a wristband that reads your nerves. A 2024 patent application is titled, in its own words, "Non-invasive mind reading using coherent radio waves." Brain Shield delivers formal written notice, in your name, to the 49 companies building, selling, or patenting the technology to read human brain activity. Every notice cites 30 patent documents by number. You pay once. We do the rest.

What has actually been filed and funded

This is not a theory. It is a patent portfolio.

Three places the technology already lives, with the document numbers. Every claim below is attributed to a patent, a filing, or a court record, and every one is on the Evidence pages.

Inside the skull

Neuralink’s N1 implant has electrode arrays granted as US12539083B2 on February 3, 2026. Synchron’s implant travels through a blood vessel and was granted US12554326B2 two weeks later. Precision Neuroscience holds US12548570B1, "Neural foundation models for brain-computer interface," for decoding speech from recorded brain signals. None of these are proposals. They are granted patents from this year.

18 implant companies on the list

In your earbuds and on your wrist

Meta’s Neural Band ships with three patents granted in 2025 for reading nerve signals at the wrist. Meta was also granted US12440167B2, an in-ear EEG electrode, in October 2025. Apple has a pending application for EEG sensing through earbuds and a 2025 filing for training large models on EEG from wearables. Emotiv’s US12461595B2 claims an interface that lets a third party request a user’s cognitive-state data.

23 device and platform companies on the list

Through the air

Huawei’s 6G white paper lists "augmented human sensing" as a use case. ETSI published the first 6G sensing use-case report in April 2025. Wi-Fi sensing patents granted in 2025 to Cognitive Systems and Origin Wireless detect people’s presence and motion from ordinary network signals. That is Signal Shield’s territory: 33 entities from the chip makers to the FCC.

33 infrastructure entities on the Signal Shield list
The money behind it

Funded, patented, trademarked. In that order.

  1. 2010 to 2020$33.2B invested in neurotechnology worldwide, per UNESCO.
  2. May 2019DARPA funds 6 teams under the N3 program, $100M+ over four years, to read and write the brain without surgery at a stated 50 ms latency target.
  3. March 2025Neuralink files trademarks for Telepathy, Blindsight, Telekinesis.
  4. April 2025PatentVest counts 2,160 BCI patent families across 664 organizations and projects a $400B US market.
  5. July 202523andMe’s database, about 15,000,000 people’s genetic records, is sold out of bankruptcy for $305M.
  6. 2025 to 202610 patents cited on this site were granted to Brain Shield recipients in the last twenty months, including 2 to Neuralink and 4 to Meta.

The question is not whether it arrives. It is whether you said no, in writing, before it did.

The legal gap

5 states have a neural-data law. 45 do not.

ALAKAZARCACOCTDEFLGAHIIDILINIAKSKYLAMEMDMAMIMNMSMOMTNENVNHNJNMNYNCNDOHOKORPARISCSDTNTXUTVTVAWAWVWIWY

Colorado, California, Montana, Connecticut, Vermont have written neural data into their privacy statutes. Connecticut’s provisions took effect July 1, 2026. Vermont’s privacy act does not take effect until January 1, 2028. Every one of them turns on consent, and none of them gives you a private right to sue.

In Washington, the MIND Act (S. 2925) directs the Federal Trade Commission to study neural data. Study. It was referred to committee on September 29, 2025 and has had no hearing since. There is no federal law protecting neural data. In Arkansas, no bill has been introduced.

The terms of service you accepted gave these companies broad rights to data you have not generated yet. The Neurorights Foundation reviewed thirty consumer neurotech companies in 2024: 29 of 30 keep unrestricted access to their users’ brain data.

You can wait for Congress. Or you can put it in writing today.

The precedent

Fifteen million people found out the hard way.

In 2018 you spat in a tube and mailed it to 23andMe. Ancestry, health risks, a story for Thanksgiving. You clicked "I agree" on a document nobody reads.

In March 2025, 23andMe filed for bankruptcy. Your genome, your children’s inherited risks, the whole biological blueprint, became a line on an asset schedule. Regeneron agreed to pay $256 million. A nonprofit founded by the company’s own co-founder outbid it, and the court approved the sale for $305M in June 2025. You were not asked. You had no veto.

The bankruptcy court’s job was to get the most for creditors. HIPAA does not cover a consumer genetics company. GINA does not cover life insurance. The data was inventory, and inventory gets sold.

Right now, 29 of 30 consumer neurotechnology companies hold the same kind of rights over brain data that 23andMe held over DNA. The difference is that most of that data has not been collected yet. That is the window.

The only person who is going to put them on notice is you.

You cannot stop them from building it.

You can put every single one of them on notice.

Introducing

Brain Shield

A notice delivery service. Formal written notice to 49 companies, on your behalf, before the technology reaches you.

You pay $49 and answer three questions. We prepare a formal written notice in your name to each of the 49 companies across 4 layers, from implant makers to the platform companies that could put a brain sensor in an earbud. Each notice states that you do not consent to the collection, decoding, inference, storage or sale of your neural data by any technology the company may deploy in future, and cites 30 patent documents by number so the company cannot later say it did not know what the refusal covered.

You do not draft anything. You do not mail anything. You do not look up a single registered agent. We do all of it, and you keep the proof.

Who built this

Built in Springdale, Arkansas, by an AI company.

Brain Shield is a product of Ediflo.AI, LLC, founded by Richard Coger. We build AI systems for a living, so we know what they can do with a signal. We read the patents, tracked the funding, and watched the grants stack up through 2025 and 2026. We decided the people who understand this technology best owe the public a practical way to say no before it arrives.

"The measure of a company is not what it builds when the stakes are low, but what it refuses to build when the money is high."

We are not a law firm and we do not pretend to be one. We will never tell you that a company is reading your mind today, because the evidence does not say that. What we deliver is a notice, an address, a date, and the proof. More about Ediflo.AI.

Questions

Every objection, answered.

Is this legitimate?

Yes. A formal written notice, delivered to a company’s registered agent and signed for, is one of the oldest instruments in American commerce. Brain Shield prepares that notice in your name, cites 30 patent documents by number, and delivers it by certified mail with proof of service. What it creates is a documented record that you refused consent before any collection took place. Whether and how that record matters later depends on the law where you live and on facts nobody can predict today. This is not legal advice; for questions about your own situation, talk to a licensed attorney in your state.

Does this stop companies from collecting my data?

No notice stops a machine. What a delivered notice does is remove any later claim that you consented, fix the date on which the company knew, and give you the proof. Think of it the way a landlord thinks of a certified letter: the point is that they signed for it.

Do I need a lawyer?

Not to order. You answer three questions and we do the rest. If you ever need to act on the notice against a specific company, that is when an attorney helps, and your delivery archive gives them everything: the notice, the index, the tracking, the affidavit.

What if I already use these companies’ products?

The notice says in plain terms that your continued use of any device, platform or network is not consent to the collection or decoding of your neural data. You do not have to throw out your headphones or cancel your carrier for the notice to stand.

What about data already collected?

Brain Shield is pre-emptive. It refuses consent to future collection by technology these companies have patented, funded or published but not deployed to the public. Deletion demands for data already held are a separate product built on state deletion rights, and we will offer it separately rather than blur the two.

Is this for people who believe the technology is being used on them right now?

No. We do not claim any company is reading anyone’s mind today, and the evidence does not support that claim. If you believe you are being harmed now, that is a matter for a physician or an attorney, and this service is not designed for it.

Is my information safe with you?

We practice what the product preaches. This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics or tracking scripts. Checkout runs on the payment provider’s infrastructure. We use your name and state only to prepare your notices, and we do not sell or share customer data.

What do the companies do when they receive it?

Most corporate legal departments log a notice and file it. Some send an automated privacy response. Few reply directly, and they do not need to: the signed receipt is the record. What they can no longer do is say they were never told.

What is the difference between Brain Shield and Signal Shield?

Brain Shield covers the 49 companies building brain-reading hardware and software: implants, headbands, earbuds, wristbands, and the large technology companies holding neural patents. Signal Shield covers the 33 entities behind sensing the body through the air: 6G equipment makers, carriers, tower owners, DARPA N3 contractors, university research review boards, and the FCC. The bundle covers all 82.

Can I add companies?

Not yet. The recipient lists are fixed so that every notice in a batch is identical in scope and the record is clean. A custom add-on is planned. In the meantime, every recipient is listed with the documented reason it is named on the Companies page.

What about companies outside the United States?

Recipients headquartered abroad receive notice at their published headquarters address. Several are on the list now: InteraXon in Canada, g.tec in Austria, Brain Products in Germany, Bitbrain and INBRAIN in Spain, MindMaze and Neurosoft in Switzerland, Cortical Labs in Australia, and four Chinese developers.

Why $49?

Because the research, the registered-agent lookups and the delivery system were built once. Your payment covers preparing your notices, the certified mailing, and your archive. Notices are mailed in batches so that each company receives one consolidated package, which is what keeps the price where it is.

Is there a refund?

Yes. Full refund within 30 days of purchase if your notices have not yet been mailed. Once a batch has gone to the post office, the mailing cannot be recalled; the refund terms at checkout say exactly when that happens.

Is this a subscription?

No. One payment. Your delivery archive does not expire. If new recipients are added later, that will be offered as a separate product; nothing renews on its own.

Last word

Right now, 49 companies have no record that you said no.

Neuralink was granted two implant patents in February 2026. Meta’s wristband patents were granted last fall. Emotiv holds a patent for handing your cognitive-state data to third parties. The 6G sensing use cases are published. You cannot put the technology back in the box. You can put every company that builds it on notice, in writing, with proof, for $49.
