It seems clear to me that schizophrenic people generally think they are being tortured with whatever technology is appropriate from the age in which they live. In that famous first writeup, the method of torture was "pneumatic chemistry". In the 70s, it was all about picking up radio signals in tooth fillings ("what's the frequency, Kenneth?"). Now people are being tortured with stuff akin to wifi signals or satellites.
