We humans have evolved a rich repertoire of communication, from gesture to sophisticated languages. All of these forms of communication link otherwise separate individuals in such a way that they can share and express their singular experiences and work together collaboratively. In a new study, technology replaces language as a means of communicating by directly linking the activity of human brains. Electrical activity from the brains of a pair of human subjects was transmitted to the brain of a third individual in the form of magnetic signals, which conveyed an instruction to perform a task in a particular manner. This study opens the door to extraordinary new means of human collaboration while, at the same time, blurring fundamental notions about individual identity and autonomy in disconcerting ways.

Obviously this would never work on brainless rethuglicans.

Just for wearing my neurotron genius head set while I sleep and you can too.
Why not rent out your brain while you arent using it while you sleep? Its the easiest job Ive ever had.
Warning some individuals report unexplained personality changes, rabid patriotism, and the urge to consume. Offer void where mind control is not legal.
It would be a shame if this became a requirement for UBI.
