Only one time use.
Think of like world leaders, celebrities, ya know 😉. Are you gonna make them do some embarassing things, or illegal acts.
My answer:

Take control of an NSA agent with access to the most powerful hacking tools, hack everyone’s phone, install a program that randomly have a popup at random intervals, the popup message says “I’m watching you”. This also tries to spread itself to any other phone it can connect to. Pure chaos 😈
Pretty sure I can do this in a minute, depending on how good the NSA tools are.
To OP and others giving similar answers; ok, so you take control of the person…
Do you actually know how to do the things you say?
Using OP as an example, do you know how to use those hacking tools? Do you know how to go about hacking everyone’s phone? Because otherwise the only thing you’ll have access to for a minute is whatever is in arms reach of said NSA agent.
Shhhh if every movie director thought about movie plots deeper, we’d have 90% less movies. 😉
As Netanyahu start screaming in to the nearest camera.
“This is the one true voice of God, Of course this man commits genocide! His final solution to Palestinians is to smite every hospitals, school and refugee until none remain! Those that help him kill shall be damned with him. Repent!”
Figure that is immposible for him to explain away and would end his support. Killing him wouldn’t stop the killing, but discrediting him among the religious might.
Only downside is it would cement religion as a fact, but I guess if I got magic possession powers then it end my skeptical agnosticism about higher powers anyways.
“What a weird deepfake. These Iran’s useful idiots are spreading lies again!”
All his genocidal suporters will just believe him.
Make Putin jump through a high rise window.
Ah i see we think alike. Except i would have it during a live video and make it look like he ‘accidentally’ topped out. People would be like “he… he actually just fell out of a window”
It’s a real problem, these high windows
Lol, people would just think he got couped
Gotta keep the tradition you know 😉
Make the Pope announce his conversion to Buddhism (and declare it an infallible doctrine of faith, ex cathedra).
Oh that’s a good one. Get the pope to pass a bull offering everyone salvation, past, present, future, fictional, factual, human, animal, spirit.
They’d reverse it quickly, but it would be too late. It happened.
And because the Holy See has ecclesiastic jurisdiction (as we all learned in Dogma ) then it would totally count. Heaven for everyone.
And if there are angels in Wisconsin cursed by God and breaking divine infallibility unmakes the universe (it doesn’t) then the world would end.
That’d take more than a minute.

As someone with ADHD, I’d immediately get myself doing the things I want to be doing. Manipulating/screwing over others? No thanks. The havoc I wreak just in myself is plenty enough
Wouldn’t you just get distracted and put it off for later like you already do when you already have control of yourself albeit through the very same ADHD-addled brain you were hoping would for some reason spend the one, in some way supernatural minute, highly effectively?
take over Trump on inauguration day just as he’s about to take the oath. claim the election was rigged in my favor by the Russians and everyone I know was in on it also that I’m (he) a Russian spy. call all magas mentally retarded and they should drink bleach to cleanse the world of their filth.
finally take a swan dive down the stairs and break my neck.
The best part of this would not be the act itself but the insane mental gymnastics that Americans would put themselves through to deny or justify it so as to result in, ultimately, no change at all.
People are going to say Trump and Putin and all that shit, but I’m going to control my boss and have him double my salary.
Only thinking of yourself, tsk tsk.
Take over a billionaire and tell assistant to transfer 5m to real me and never mention it again or he will be fired.
That’s sus af.
Just set up a bitcoin wallet before you use the ability. Then take control of someone like musk, who definitely has some bitcoins, transfer all to your wallet.
Untraceable! (ish)
Very traceable, in fact. Do you know how bitcoins work?
The issue is when you try to spend the bitcoins. You’ll eventually reveal some of your personal info when doing so, unless you are willing to work with the underground. Might go well, might end up with you in a ditch or a cell.
Wear a mask
Go to Bitcoin ATM
Withdraw
Ez
I mean, its better than having the money wired directly to your bank account like the other user suggested.
Psst, or use actually more anonymous crypto like monero.
Huh, I wasn’t aware there’s such a thing as a bitcoin ATM. That would make it possible I guess, but I feel like eventually you’d still get caught some way or another.
I can’t login to my own Coinbase in under a minute, let alone someone else’s.
Most people would have everything already logged in on their phone.
Make someone edit the balance of my bank account. I think you can buy a lot of things, including further immoral services with cash. I hope there is someone who can do it in 1 minute and doesn’t require any review by other people.
This would undoubtedly backfire just like that TikTok “hack” that happened a while ago. (If you’re out of the loop, it boiled down to writing yourself a bad cheque for a ridiculous amount, and then spending the money that appeared in your account before it bounced. Presto! Cheque fraud! Bad things are coming to you soon!)
“We’re sorry to inform you that you have spent money wrongly credited to your account. You now owe us all that money back and we’ve slapped on a 100% interest rate for good measure. You could fight this in court, but we have more money than Croesus, so you’ll lose. Sincerely YourBank Inc.”
