FOUR CUBIC FRAMES
DISPROVES SOFT G GOD
YOU ARE EDUCATED STUPID

PleasureKevin posted:

the year is 2029. hackers in mainland china have been selling bugged Ara modules for years. the modules, which of course all had access to other parts of the phones, sat dormant collecting finger print images of their owners, periodically commandeering the antenna to send the valuable biometric data to servers overseas. 2 months ago a rogue member of the group, or possibly one of it's clients, leaked the petabytes of data onto the net. security technicians scrambled to cross reference the data with their databases, they didn't want any of the leaked biometric data being used to gain access to their systems. within days, millions of employees were unable to enter their own workplaces, and legacy security systems had to be taken out of storage for use again.

most modern work places now have two entrances: ones for employees with compromised biometric data, and ones for those with "pure bios". the compromised entrance uses RF keys in combination with OTP codes sent to them remotely over 5G connection to their phones. pure bios scan their thumb as normal. as you'd expect, the pure bios line moves a lot more smoothly than the compromised one. some have taken to calling them the "android" and "iPhone" doors, since no iPhone users were compromised.

with the follow-up of yet more leaks from more compromised modules and devices, those with pure bios are an increasingly valuable commodity in military and high-tech sectors. the debate has started over whether those with compromised bios are a protected class that employers can or cannot discriminate against when hiring, as compromised individuals find it harder and harder to find good paying jobs.

Very little pleasure in this post, Kevin

Google doesn't automatically translate using correct syntax the epic combo of spanglish, memes, and inside jokewords like Chome and PossyNossy i use with my friends, fail much? It also doesn't autocorrect with correct syntax the custom distro of double dutch and vowel shift cipher i contrived with my twin brother, EPIC fail much? Sundar is a loving idiot.
