Well, no....but if Sauron regains his Ring the the Three Ring-bearers must stop using them, because if they don't then Sauron can read the thoughts of the other Ringbearers.

When Sauron first made the One Ring and put it on, Celebrimbor was instantly aware that he had been betrayed, and took off the Rings. Whenever Sauron possesses the One Ring, the Three Rings cannot be used for anything, because of the above statement.

Yeah-it's confusing.
