About this ebook
The world has reached a boiling point. Predatory corporations own the government and media and use them to delude the masses, creating wars for natural resources, dividing the population along political and racial lines, propagating hatred and rhetoric, and exploiting the planet and the human classes. Enter into this a generation tired of it all and connected in a way the world has never seen before... through social networking.
Neil Reese is a normal guy with a gift for programming. After a series of inequitable online experiences, he gets fed up and decides to launch a new social site to combat the corporate culture and expose their predatory practices. The site soon grows into a massive online gathering of techno-savy, corporate-weary, conscious consumers that push back with the only weapon they possess: their money. Through carefully planned flash mobs, boycotts and other tactics, and aided by the unstoppable power of united, social networking masses, they begin an odyssey that threatens dirty corporations by crippling them at the source.
But don't count the power elite out. The powers that be mount a counter-attack that endangers the lives of The Consortium's founding members and threatens to shut it all down. Join the story that mirrors such real-life events as Wiki-Leaks, the Arab Spring, and the Occupy Movement. Be a part of the social masses as they wake up and realize the power in numbers and the power social networking has, and the fact that we do have a say in the quality of our future.
