Our thoughts themselves are becoming matters of public record as new technology makes it increasingly difficult to hide within one's own mind.

The Erosion of Privacy; Are Our Thoughts Safe from Manipulation?

I wrote about this a number of years ago; we are clearly reaching the point where we can read people's thoughts, and also control them. See here.

Things like deep brain stimulation and increasing control over the growth of neural connections (neuroplasticity) coupled with direct neural links and whatnot make it possible to do what guys like Stalin could only dream about doing; controlling nnot just people's behavior and outward appearance but their very minds themselves.

Musk is creating the Mark of the Beast with his neuralink technology, whether he realizes it or not.

While there are great things that can possibly be accomplished with this technology (like paralyzed people walking) the dangers of this should give us pause. If such technology can be misused it will be. Tyrants always abuse technology for their own benefit.
