finished this book on @keccers.eth recommendation, a rare doomer book that actually earns its anxiety

wake-up call about neurotech that no one seems to be taking seriously enough. opens with a workplace dystopia that's way closer than you think — imagine your brainwave data getting subpoenaed by your employer

author brings personal stakes (migraines + severe PTSD) that make you realize why we can't just say no to this tech, but between intrusive surveillance, state control, and straight-up weaponization (Havana Syndrome is probably real btw), we're sleepwalking into a future where our thoughts aren't our own

great historical parallels about medical gatekeeping show how institutions will try to control this tech, too

The boundaries between our last truly private space  and the wider world are eroding like sandstone under a drip drop faucet
