Brain to brain
Technology
While seemingly telepathic in nature, brain to brain communications are actually the product of computer technology that runs on servers and routes communications via satellite. Participants of brain to brain communications are not inherently psychic. Rather, they simply sign up with the service and log on to the server when they want to chat. Vladimir Putin first introduced brain to brain technology to Gail, but is unclear on whether he and his scientists invented it.
The technology works through the use of remote mind-reading technology. A user's thoughts (emotions and internal narrative) are read by a computer program. The program encodes the thoughts and sends them to satellite relays, which rebroadcast the thoughts to the brain of the recipient. All a user must do is think of a message and intend that it be sent to a particular recipient. All received communications are placed into first-in-first-out queues and processed one at a time by the recipient's brain. It's unknown, at this time, if the brain to brain network supports priority queues or other data structures for the organization and processing of communications.
This is the main method in which Gail has interacted with her men over the course of several decades. The system's ability to translate the thoughts of participants in brain to brain communication made conversation with Vladimir Putin much easier.
Scriptural Basis
Gail's analysis of scripture shows Ecclesiastes 10:20 not to be an admonishment against speaking and thinking ill of powerful institutions, but instructions on how to do so untraceably once sufficiently advanced technology was developed.
Features
Friends List
Users of brain to brain communications are immediately alerted to the incoming thoughts of other users within their "program." Real time alerts are configurable by each user. By default, they only activate when the user is awake, but some users elect to be awoken immediately upon receipt of messages from certain users. Brent Spiner and Vladimir Putin both elected to receive Gail's communications 24/7.
Message Delegation
Unlike low-tech social networks, brain to brain communication allows users to delegate their message queues to trusted parties in case of emergency. In October 2005, Russian President Vladimir Putin appointed Matthew McConaughey as his substitute after a Jesuit attack caused Vladimir to have a heart attack.
Automatic Translation
Thanks to the use of "a computer programming language that transcends all languages", the brain to brain communications network is able to translate all thoughts into a universal language during transmission. The recipient's brain to brain communication client automatically translates this universal language back into whatever language the recipient understands best.
Brain to Brain Loving
While use of the brain to brain communication method was at first largely constrained to conversation, in late 2001 Vladimir Putin introduced the concept of brain to brain loving. He demonstrated this by one day seducing Gail (with her mom over) and taking her into the next room to have wild, passionate telepathic sex. Since this day, Gail has engaged in similar sexual acts with several other men on her marriage list.
Gail feelings on the morality of brain-to-brain sex are mixed and ambiguous. While she considers the act of sex alone to equate to official marriage in the eyes of God, and brain to brain loving to equal sex, when confronted about the validity of her marriage to Brent Spiner, she will also defend her carnal innocence by claiming to only have had real sex with her ex-husband.
Drawbacks
Impersonation
The brain to brain communication system has little default support for user authentication. Sometimes, imposters send messages to Gail. She determines whether or not a user is an impostor through intuition and knowledge of their personality. Zack Knight breached brain to brain communication server security and used his access to successfully impersonate Jesus. To date, Zack Knight continues to use his access to the brain to brain servers to impersonate Gail's men, so Gail rejects all voices that claim to be Jesus or seem out-of-character.
Connectivity Problems
The brain to brain communication system is dependent on a computer and satellite infrastructure prone to fault and deliberate interception. Signal tampering by the Jesuits and unscheduled computer downtime cause some messages to arrive incomplete or not reach their intended recipients. It has been well established that Nukkake radiation knocks out or otherwise scrambles brain to brain communication.
