Assuming these results hold, I wonder what the legal implications would be. In a criminal prosecution or investigation, can you force someone to just think about the question while stealing the image straight out of their skull? Even worse, what happens when its only 85% accurate but 100% convincing to juries.
In the US at least, I think 4th amendment protections obviously apply (though with this bench, don't count your precedents before they hatch). Elsewhere in the world, even fairly liberal freedom loving jurisdictions, the question is still up in the air imo. That should give everyone pause.
