Here is a good reading on Espionage & Brain-Computer Interfaces - Modern Warfare Series.
A quick Executive Summary below but the rabbit hole goes way deeper:
Executive Summary
"Remote Neural Monitoring, Control and Manipulation" (RNMCM) is a term that refers to the usage of specific technologies to record and/or alter the electrical activity of neurons in the human body (or any life-form). Neurons can broadly be separated into four main categories:
Sensory neurons
Motor (and other output) neurons
Communication neurons
Computation neurons
The electrical activity of each of these four main types of neurons can be classified by a computer. Every action a human makes, or experiences, is represented by specific patterns in the electrical activity. Thus, when a specific electrical pattern is observed, we can state that a certain event has happened. That could be a feeling of joy, seeing a blue car, tasting an orange, thinking of a word, moving a limb, or even visualizing a shape in your mind to solve a mathematical puzzle.
