Maybe at some point in the future, but we definitely aren't at the stage of being able to parse out a specific password from an FMRI reading right now.

- criddell 5y agoNo, but combined with torture it might be effective enough.
- GTP 5y agoNo, I think that adding torture to the mix will make the FMRI results even less readable
- criddell 5y agoWhat I was thinking was using FMRI to find out if they actually do remember the password (FMRI lie detection really only works with yes/no questions, AFAIK). If they don't know, then torture is a waste of time. If they do know, then you know torture may be fruitful.
- rawsta 5y agoFMRI uses indicators like pulse, heartrate, etc. to make a more or less estimate on the truthfulness. Torture can make these indicators useless. Torture is a very flawed method to extract informations. You can't be sure that the victim isn't telling lies or admits to crimes just to make the torture stop.

- dylan604 5y agoFor some, being placed in the MRI would be torture. Hope you don't have a plate in your head or other bodily location. Would torturers be so concerned with this, or is that just part of the threat. TLA person: Give us the code or we put you the MRI machine!! Victim: Can't you just use a $5 wrench instead?
