A Boring Dystopia

The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

That’s like saying “AOL is the internet” when it was popular. Sure for a lot of people, it was the only thing they knew, but there was CompuServe, Prodigy and a whole host of others that you don’t even have to worry about AOL. Google is just AOL in a different form.

You could escape AOL. If you are connected tp the Internet you cannot escape Google. Youll be tracked through browser fingerprinting by web plugins, at the very least.
