Is electronic telepathy real? The definition of it (there are many definitions) is broadcasting thoughts through the airwaves (radio, tv, etc)

I would like to know if this is real and yes I am a diagnosed aspie.


Any information on this would be helpful. I am not suffering any delusions nor am I psychotic. Thanks.

In the sense that you are asking after, no, there's no evidence for it.

In a more general sense, sure. I'm broadcasting my thoughts to you now through teh interwebs. It would presently be feasible to set up a limited form of telepathic communication using brain sensors - there are various technologies allowing people to move a virtual pointer with their brain (though generally they're quite convoluted) and you could hook that up to a virtual keyboard and a hearing aid in someone else's ear if you really wanted. Give it long enough and it'll develop, but it's not going to be a fast-moving field. Most predictions of our impending cyborgification don't take account of the sheer amount of hassle involved in implants and sensors and all that stuff.
