How do we preserve the Right
to Mental Privacy in XR?
Biometrically-inferred psychographic data from
XR is not covered by existing privacy laws.
Some biometric user data will be contextually-
relevant & required for some XR apps to
function, which users should be able to consent
to sharing within the context of those apps.
Companies require users to consent to their
Terms of Service & Privacy Policies, which do
not prevent them them from recording &
monetizing user data, extrapolating biometric
psychographic information, or using it for
contextually-aware AI, but they have limited
what third party developers can do with that
same data.

How do we preserve the Right

Biometrically-inferred psychographic data from
XR is not covered by existing privacy laws.
Some biometric user data will be contextually-
relevant & required for some XR apps to
function, which users should be able to consent
to sharing within the context of those apps.
Companies require users to consent to their
Terms of Service & Privacy Policies, which do
not prevent them them from recording &
monetizing user data, extrapolating biometric
psychographic information, or using it for
contextually-aware AI, but they have limited
what third party developers can do with that
same data.
