She's right. End to end encryption doesn't mean a lot when your own device can't be trusted to not capture screenshots or store the contents of push notifications.
We just need biologically accelerated decryption mechanisms in our brain so we can read encrypted data directly. Keys are safely stored in a new organ which gets implemented at birth.
Sounds more plausible than some of the tech talking points.
They "just" need the expantional growth to be linear? If we can wish to change maths, we can change our own biology!
I'm not sure you can call one of Musk's business not tech talking points themselves... .
