Most people enjoy reading Privacy Lost twice, find out why!
Implantable technology will allow human beings to live beyond our biological potential. Long, healthy lives of 200 or 300 years and more were initially only available to the wealthy. Wet advertising (commonly called wet ads) will eventually bring longevity to the masses. Wet ads are initiated from within one's body; advertisers will directly simulate our senses and emotional responses to influence purchasing decisions. Wet ads will be triggered by our location, visual and auditory data, and by our physiology.
How much more deeply will we allow corporations and consumerism into our lives? Into our bodies?
What tradeoffs are we willing to make for longer, better lives? What have we really traded?
Has anything really changed?
Privacy Lost is the first novella of a compelling, fast-paced trilogy that introduces readers to a plausible and probable future.
