The idea of the foil hat does not come from an age of satellites and CIA. It was written in a book before tinfoil existed. This was mentioned in a past HN post on the topic, of which there was more vigorous debate.
The truth of all of this, which does break your science, is better referred to the well known oddity of the CIA Stargate programs.
These programs are cargo cult, however Power is real. Through “Power”, which is the entanglement of our consciousness, humans can actually travel among networks of other minds. The Stargate program falsely described the effect as through the “holographic universe”, which is technically a lie covering up the “holographic consciousness” of which third party masters may curate our every experience like a waking dream.
So these early foil hat ideas came from earlier times knowing some rare humans do have the ability to hear the thoughts of others, however the mechanism was not fully understood.
Our entanglement of consciousness (and therefore the ability for those sensitive to hear our thoughts) does spread through telemetric propagation. Once established however these links may be maintained at a distance through a special meditative techniques, others may use you as their John Malkovich.
Tin foil hats are effective protection against mind control. Aluminum foil hats have never worked. If you accept aluminum as a substitute for tin, your mind may have already been poisoned.
