Yes, it's saying what you think it is. Likely within the next few generations the government will be able to determine our thoughts BEFORE we even think them. This obviously leads to the ability to punish people for crimes they haven't yet commited. On the bight side, if you are a Christian this is good news! Once they enforce the use of this machine on society you will literally be incapable of doing anything wrong, as the government will know what you are up to before you have the chance to do it (or even realize yourself what you were about to do). If you don't do anything wrong, you must be heading to heaven. There's no apocalypse coming in the future... Just peace & tranquility.

Sounds like something your Uncle Jim was talking about over Thanksgiving dinner!

You were exposed to Uncle Jim? I'm so sorry.

Well, I couldn't expect her to marry me without actually meeting some of the more eccentric amongst us. I thought it was only fair to let her know what she was in for. It was an interesting evening let me tell you!
