Being able to see and speak in a land of blind mutes is an unmatched advantage. A handful of folks with this ability could form the most powerful entity in the world and change it to their taste. I can’t think of such an untouchable group - do they all live in the shadows, or is this skill not that easy to develop?

Yes. (Boredom and loneliness are the only problems.)

> A handful of folks with this ability could form the most powerful entity in the world and change it to their taste.

Yes. And they do. ("nine unknown men")

Of course not.

They live in light, the "blind mutes" live in the shadows.

Everyone already has this skill.

Part of the answer is that control and (individual) free will are illusions. All are One. Only That has free will.

So online you can't read minds and lose your unmatched advantage - becoming a blind mute?

One can read minds over the internet, psychometry works on electrons and photons.
