If this happened due to suddenly everyone being able to read each others thoughts unfiltered and without the ability to block others out from your own, it would be amazing. However power corrupts and I don’t think there is an utopian situation where abuse would not happen in a society where information is given up voluntarily.

Power is also removed from those who keep secrets. Businesses can’t lie anymore. Power is equalised as this applies to everyone.
