No, you're moving the goalposts. You were specifically talking saying "to wirelessly read a few specific bytes of data from the brain of an unknowing person".

You do not read bytes of data from the brain, because there are no bytes in the brain. You read information (in whatever weird form and format the brain has it), and in order to store it in whatever digital storage device you have, only then convert it into bytes and store those bytes.

It's like if you were saying "I read three words of English text from this book written in Chinese".

But yeah, at this point, we're arguing pure semantics. :)
