Big Brother is watching your genes, be on your guard!

Warning! This message is important!

Your privacy is under threat and is being invaded constantly without your knowledge.

Cell samples can be taken from you when you least expect it.

It could be your regular partner, your insurance company, your bank manager, a virtual bordello, or for example the personnel staff at a job interview. Cell specimens can be taken from pieces of loose or flaking skin, from saliva left on the rim of a drinking glass, from sperm after intercourse, from vaginal discharges, from hair left on a comb or brush, and even from sweat exuded during virtual adventures. Your cell specimen will reveal to the user if you have a tendency towards happiness, aggression, poor health, your energy and diligence in the workplace, or even your capacity for scheming and two-timing. On the basis of what the cell culture reveals, THEY can determine how your future looks!

As you probably know, we at Cyberpunk Pirate Worldwide are directly opposed to all forms of surveillance and invasions of privacy. We still have much to do in this area.

However, we do now have at our fingertips a powerful pharmacological antidote to some of the most typical forms of intrusive genetic inspection. Unfortunately it does not provide cover for samples taken from hair or nail clippings, but in the case of many other parts of the body or bodily secretions it has been shown to work very well. The medication is based on a process of broad gene manipulation that acts on all new skin cells. It alters large unused areas of your genomic structure to provide a gene fingerprint that resembles the typical patterns used in such inspections. After treatment with the drug, you will still be your old self, but your cell samples will be “de-individualized” and will reveal no specific results when run through conventional gene testing devices.

This message comes to you with a built-in worm virus that has already passed it on automatically to all addresses found in your mailing lists. The virus contains an encoded return address, such that your orders and payments may reach us without exposing either you or Cyberpunk Pirate Worldwide to online mail monitors. For the development and postage of the drug, we are obliged to bill you the EUR 1,000 specified in the virus. The drug will be sent to you by conventional mail, courier service, or amongst your regular grocery deliveries within approximately seven days of receipt of your order. Act without delay to free yourself of the chains of Big Brother and his control-freaks! Carpe diem!

Toteuma-arvio 2026

Toteuma lyhyesti

  • Ilmiön toteuma: 5/5
  • Toteuma viiden vuoden tarkkuudella: kyllä; arviointi-ikkuna on 2014–2024
  • Toteuma väljemmällä aikahorisontilla: kyllä, erittäin vahvasti
  • Ilmiön ydin: ihmisestä voidaan kerätä DNA:ta huomaamatta, yhdistää se tietokantoihin ja päätellä arkaluonteisia asioita ilman hänen suostumustaan.

Kuluttajageenitestit, rikostekninen sukututkimus ja laajat DNA-tietokannat ovat tehneet myös sukulaisten geneettisestä yksityisyydestä haavoittuvan. Hylätystä syljestä tai hiuksesta saatava näyte voi tunnistaa henkilön.

Johtopäätös: ennuste toteutui erittäin vahvasti ja oikeassa aikaikkunassa.
