Edit: maybe at some point, the police will be able to read our thoughts to know if we are innocent or guilty with a non-invasive device.
Telepathy?
Telepathy is the translation of thought into transmissible signals without sound that can be received and understood either by computer or others.
Ah well then this post is telepathy. What an odd “definition”.
Telepathy is typically used for mind-to-mind, but here there is an intermediary. I guess better something like mind-reading.
Some time ago someone posted about psychic staring effect and morphic resonance stuff here on Lemmy, I think the new advances on the telepathic field are related to both of these.
Edit: the not so good part it’s I believe it will not pass so long when someone start to make mind-control possible.
what privacy lol, it’s already gone
I’ll bite.
No, they won’t literally read brain waves to find out your secrets. Instead maybe they’ll have an AI model trained on data from your life and then use it to simulate the things you might be thinking.
Sure, that’ll lead to false convictions, but they don’t give a shit lol
The only surefire form of privacy is to not store information digitally in the first place, ideally not at all.
But sometimes we do have information that needs storing. And in that case privacy requires that you control the data at rest and encrypt the data at transit. All free cloud services can snoop your data if they really want to. If you value privacy, minimize your use of them.
You should assume that every social network is ride with spying, both for corporate and governmental purposes. For example, the main reason TikTok is currently getting threatened with a banning is because they have a less fed-friendly algorithm, so large masses of people are actually seeing the horrors in Gaza. If you watch the nightly news, you won’t see that content. If you go to YouTube, you won’t see that content. You also will barely see it on Reddit (which literally hired someone that worked at the CIA to be their community manager person lol). Do your best to dissociate your online activity from your personal identity. Use a good VPN that you pay for with cash or a proxy system like a voucher that can’t be traced back to you. Use burner email accounts. Etc etc.
