Being John Hurt. And then when he goes into the hole in the office, he transports to a fancy restaurant filled with his clones that can only say his name where a live band of John Hurts does "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails.
 
A thread full of hot-linked images which are immediately quoted for no reason is much worse thing than any security breach. My mousewheel is crying! :mrgreen:

In general, neither Huxley nor Orwell were right. Gibson and other pioneers of cyberpunk were. To be honest, I'm not sure why we continue to think of the genre as fiction. We're living it right now.

Not really. Have you seen what hackers look like nowadays?
Not like this, at any rate.

Yeah, 1984 is still alive, albeit with more malnourishment in North Korea. Plenty of other examples from the 20thC.
The farther we get away from the Reagan/Thatcher era, the more dated Gibson's cyberpunk seems.

Malkovitch, Malkovitch?
 


Mechanical compound eye

Imposed observance. Sentries in the sky

Vigilant lenses. Objectives belied

In blackened heavens covertly they hide


They see you. They see all. They know all indiscretions

Compiler of your dreams, your indignations

Following your every single move

They see you


All-seeing instrument. Supreme perception

Omnifocal accumulator

Thief of integrity. Its gaze upon the blind

Information divinity by man designed


The lives of all they occupy. Their eyes in dismal gloom

The all-piercing, dead oculi - mirrors of our doom

Oblivious to the trespass as you gaze into the black

The demon of surveillance insultingly staring back

Into you


They own your every secret, your life is in their files

The grains of your every waking second sifted through and scrutinized

They know your every right. They know your every wrong

Each put in their due compartment - sins where sins belong


They know you. They see all. They know all indiscretions

Compiler of your dreams, your indignations

Following your every single move

They know you

Privacy is when you can make other people watch porn at full volume.

How about horrid?

point-and-click adventure games from the 90's are "spooky".
