I agree. There are levels of information that are not part of the usual sensory spectrum. By developing other avenues of informational gathering, it really does give a much deeper picture.
Did you see in the news now that next year they are unveiling brain scanning tech for public buildings in order to "read minds?"
I will include some of these techs in this thread as I go along. The thought police idea is already there and just being ushered into the public mindset out of what used to be hidden. When we consider experiments like The Philadelphia Experiment decades ago, the elite has had very sophisticated tech for a long time and what they have now would make most people enter into a profound culture/tech shock.
