No revolution without a pamphlet? That used to be true, but now its just the way to end a revolution really fast. Since cheap laser-printers are available to the masses, they hide their serial number (and maybe even more information) in a dot matrix they smuggle into your pamphlet. See for your self:

The next revolution will be internet based. Mr. Barack just showed us how its done. But don’t trust the hardware you bought with your own money. Your printer will rat you out. MS Windows will probably too. If you are an European or Australian, the government watches and records what website your visited, who your phoned, and where your mobile connected to a base station.

Sometimes I have the impression that our politicans don’t think Orwells 1984 was a warning but an handbook to a bright and shiny future.

Okay, I shut up and continue vomiting.

Played a Rockerboy (or girl) lately? Overwhelmed by the ability to motivate the masses? It’s real:

Background (as given by minneapolis.metblogs.com): The police turned of the speakers on Rage Against the Machine at a concert, so the band continued a megaphone and performed a capella. 

The fantastic sci-fi blog io9 has a great article on cybernetic implants. I’ll just steal the linked YouTube vids and then point you to their article.

Ah, right, the link.

I found this neat photo on a site advertising yet another sci-fi movie starring Keanu Reaves.

Neat. Now I just need to create an adventure to use that pic in before the movie starts…

So your players messed with The Man again? And now The Man tries to get back?

Look how the SAS (British Special Forces) break into well defended places. Don’t go easy on your players…
