Only one time use.

Think of like world leaders, celebrities, ya know 😉. Are you gonna make them do some embarassing things, or illegal acts.

My answer:

spoiler

Take control of an NSA agent with access to the most powerful hacking tools, hack everyone’s phone, install a program that randomly have a popup at random intervals, the popup message says “I’m watching you”. This also tries to spread itself to any other phone it can connect to. Pure chaos 😈

Pretty sure I can do this in a minute, depending on how good the NSA tools are.

    As Netanyahu start screaming in to the nearest camera.

    “This is the one true voice of God, Of course this man commits genocide! His final solution to Palestinians is to smite every hospitals, school and refugee until none remain! Those that help him kill shall be damned with him. Repent!”

    Figure that is immposible for him to explain away and would end his support. Killing him wouldn’t stop the killing, but discrediting him among the religious might.

    Only downside is it would cement religion as a fact, but I guess if I got magic possession powers then it end my skeptical agnosticism about higher powers anyways.

    I don’t think it’s possible to pull that off. There might be tools to send SMS to every active number but figuring out how that software works takes way more than 1min. Even if you also get the knowledge there might be several security measures in place, like additional approvement before sending.

    I would control Putin and check the famous russian window.

    Make someone edit the balance of my bank account. I think you can buy a lot of things, including further immoral services with cash. I hope there is someone who can do it in 1 minute and doesn’t require any review by other people.

      This would undoubtedly backfire just like that TikTok “hack” that happened a while ago. (If you’re out of the loop, it boiled down to writing yourself a bad cheque for a ridiculous amount, and then spending the money that appeared in your account before it bounced. Presto! Cheque fraud! Bad things are coming to you soon!)

      “We’re sorry to inform you that you have spent money wrongly credited to your account. You now owe us all that money back and we’ve slapped on a 100% interest rate for good measure. You could fight this in court, but we have more money than Croesus, so you’ll lose. Sincerely YourBank Inc.”

        Vance doesn’t have Trumps cult so he wouldn’t be able to get away with any sort of Trump stuff. He’d try of course, but deffo get a lot more pushback.

      The actual problem here is that it’s not clear when he will be near a gun to the point that someone could do that. You only have a minute. Is Trump within a minute’s range of a gun and would not be stopped by his security detail if he tried to use it?

        My thought process is: Turn to security guy, say, “gib gun plz, pres order”. Offhand I dunno if they’d comply, but worth a shot (see what i did there?)

    Not a lot you can do in one minute. Maybe a tweet? so would have to take the muskrat.

    “After a discussion with president elect orange turdball I will be shutting down X January next year, you can find me over on Truth Social”

    Then sign him out of twitter from each device in range.

    The only people it would be ethical to use this on are those in permanent vegetative states… and myself.

    I think I’d opt for one minute of true self-control. Maybe I could overclock myself or something. Never know until you try.

      Nice job of spotting the philosophical.

      I say doctors should have a way to do this with patients to deterministically diagnose a person, (with consent of course). I’d do that in a heartbeat with my chronic issues.

    • Oh that’s a good one. Get the pope to pass a bull offering everyone salvation, past, present, future, fictional, factual, human, animal, spirit.

      They’d reverse it quickly, but it would be too late. It happened.

      And because the Holy See has ecclesiastic jurisdiction (as we all learned in Dogma ) then it would totally count. Heaven for everyone.

      And if there are angels in Wisconsin cursed by God and breaking divine infallibility unmakes the universe (it doesn’t) then the world would end.

    Biden: order seal team to take out any and all known associates to the MAGA movement. Do this under extreme secrecy and urgency, using all classified information related. Also any controlling parties to the GOP and DNC.

    Mitch first for old times sake.
