When a new breed of social media goes viral, Henry Hubert warns his students to steer clear of the website. Backspaced is unlike anything the world has ever known. The site allows users to rate their peers, anonymously, using review commentary and a star rating system. Rate whomever you like, or dislike, as often as you like, the choice is up to you. The site claims that information gathered on the site will be beneficial to everyone involved. The catch is that users have no control over what is posted on their own pages. Furthermore, anyone currently using social media has been automatically generated a profile. Once the mud starts flying, users find themselves obsessed with this toxic webpage. By the time the world finds out the horrible truth about the site, it's too late. The Sixth Great Extinction has begun. A dialogue driven, character based story; Backspaced is a futuristic look at the dark underbelly of social media.
