In a nutshell, Dr Persinger talks about the things he's learned from studying the brains of psychic people. He claims that technology is being developed that will allow every brain to have access to the knowledge of every other brain.

You forgot no more privacy...
An no privacy is not about secrets, shame or bad intentions is just the right to control what others know about you as they can't abuse and control you.

No more planning surprise parties? No surprises at all? I like surprises.
It sure would ruin the ending of every book you ever tried to read or movie you ever watch.

From other governments, sure. But if every human being from every country knows what's in every other brain, then what would be the point of it?

Control is not about causing pain in fact pain is a method for control not the objective.
In any case if the process of knowing or sharing minds is not intrinsic and open you could bet that some would abuse it.
Let alone the fact that no one is perfect an the most terrible and destructive human emotions is shame, no one would sign for that "utopia" as we all have burdens we are aware of.

Seriously, this line of thought was addressed in Star Trec, the "Borge". We would be nothing more than a colony of Ants, cockroaches, enter the name of your favorite single minded life form.
To some extent, yes, and is solely a individual choice. If we were all allowed the choice to turn it on or off.
Not necessarily. I think we would be more like the Organians. We are all psychic already. We use it all the time and don't even realize it.
