Isn't it sad that he has to type out his only messages to the world letter by letter, and he spends his time typing out the names of mega-brands?

"...‘(son’s name) moechtest du mit mir disneys die hexe und der zauberer anschauen auf amazon’ – ‘would you like to watch Disney’s witch and wizard with me on amazon’ on day 461"

He's talking to his kid. Joe Average isn't going to tell his son that he has plans to use the BCI to transcend this mortal coil and claim the power of God. He's going to do what this guy did -- ask for a beer, to hear some of his favorite music again, and to enjoy something simple with his kid that doesn't require a lot of physical input or talking from him.
