It's implicit that someone can turn you off, but you were talking about the telepaths. If they get life and death power over you, that's an important thing to point out about the scenario.
Somebody has life-and-death power over you. Are you envisioning a scenario where the community of telepaths is "closed" and no information leaks out of it..? That doesn't sound likely.
The person who already has life-and-death power over you has up to now declined to kill you. That's a good sign.
If the community of telepaths would have that power over you, you lose that degree of assurance.
