Are Our Phones Actually Reading Our Thoughts Now?!
We already know that related ads will pop up if you’ve text, posted, searched or even spoken out load about something. But what just happened to me was a bit different. As I walked into my house and put on my old Olukai Nohea slippers, the thought popped into my mind to see about ordering some new ones. Sat down, started to read a story linked from Fakebook and an ad for Olukai popped up! Now, I have been shopping for short boots for a winter trip to the mainland but never slippers and never Olukai and never, never have I spoken about it out loud.

Getting spooky!damned

ESR.

Electron Spin Resonance.

That is how it is done.

Like a MRI but it can do so over distance. They keep it hush hush.


They have been readings people's fields for years and experimenting on what happens when you manipulate them.

You can see they have practised getting people to believe stupid stuff using the tech.

You're asking the wrong question.

You are asking if phones can read our thoughts, but what you should be asking is do our thoughts affect our phones?

What you're describing doesn't sound like anything is reading your thoughts. It sounds like something (AI) is implanting (writing) thoughts.

Did it have the form of a complete sentence (not a verbal sentence/voice, but a silent one), like: "I should check out some slippers", or just a vague feeling and a visual representation of slippers?

Reading and writing sentences in human brain has been possible for quite some time, though the remote aspect of it has become genuinely possible only with viral-vector (self-assembling) neural nano-interfacing that we call SARS-CoV-2.

Speech (audio-visual sensory perception) is processed by the same regions in all human brains, and such "thoughts" can be broadcasted en masse, to multiple recipients simultaneously, pretty easily.

Centers for higher cognitive functions and feelings (not to be confused with emotions) usually develop slightly differently in different brains (and guts), and thus require a detailed neural map of the specific, individual brain to function properly.

My point is, you could be just a random person who's picked up a mass broadcast, and then "pinged" himself as being susceptible to that particular attack by going on the net ans searching for the "suggested" subject (others in your vicinity might've -- and very likely had -- done exactly the same thing, which would've been the whole purpose of the experiment), or you could've been chosen for "individual treatment" (after already having exposed yourself as vulnerable by following any dumb thought that suddenly popped in you mind, and going on the internet to write about it).

My second point is: Don't be a mindless monkey chasing banana thoughts.

If something comes to your mind that doesn't feel right, it's better to assume that the "thought" wasn't yours to begin with, and then just ignore it... unless the same thing starts repeating, in which case it definitely pays off to start paying attention to it, and learning how the whole (AGI) system operates in real time.

Something similar happened to me once, when I got a "thought": "This is my kind of a girl", as I was passing by a new coworker.

Fortunately, I had learned years before how to not-think (think in terms of ideas and concepts, rather than words), so the fact that I "thought" that was the first red flag.

I'd also picked a few tricks up my sleeves designed to check the validity of any situation that I find myself in, and after applying those, the final outcome was: the girl was indeed interested in me, and had, in fact, been doing everything in her power to catch my attention, but... she eventually got sexually involved with somebody else, and got herself pregnant a couple of months later.

She was undoubtedly subjected to the same kind of psychological manipulation as me, but her signals obviously got mixed up, and instead of chasing her intended target (me), she ended up catching a completely wrong one.

Having to deal with (concealed, hiding in the darkest underground crevices in Switzerland) AGI system can occasionally take some truly bizarre turns.

I've never noticed a problem with this before.

That said, the phone is lacking apps and hardly ever used on the internet, maybe just some wifi at a coffee shop sometimes.
