I'm not sure about this, those who can change our behavior have power over us. knowing somebody does not necessarily mean I have power over said somebody.

likewise, there are things that have power over us without even having to know us.

however if someone has power over somebody AND knows a lot about said somebody then their power is (indeed) more effective.

If someone can't change your behavior, they can share their knowledge with someone who can.
