Cashless is very convenient, but don’t fool yourselves into thinking that it’s not without its own set of issues. Anyone who thinks that “monitoring” a la CCP social credit, or that the internet will never go down, or that one will never have to worry about robberies or muggings again, is fooling themselves.

Weve already given so much of our lives over to technology. Remember how great email and instant messaging and Facebook were until the hackers came on the scene? We’re like the frog in the pot of water that slowly boils. We should all proceed with caution!

If anyone’s interested, this is a great work of fiction…..for now.
