I have a question.

Tolkien says that when Sauron created the One Ring, the elven lords noticed it and took off theirs, and hid them.

So, my question is: if Sauron did not have a direct influence in the making of the 3, but ultimately could dominate and see what the bearers of the 3 were thinking, were the elven lords that used the 3 able to see Sauron's thiking and planning?

Since Nenya gave Galadriel the power to see what Sauron was thinking, or at lest increased her power so she could do it, maybe Vilya, Narya and Nenya allowed their bearers to see what Sauron did (the creation of the One Ring) and the intentions he had with his ring, and ultimately, let the 3 ring bearers know that with his One Ring, Sauron could control and see what the bearers of the 3 rings thought?

So, did the 3 rings made them acknowledge what Sauron wanted?

Its a good explanation 4 me!
