BS Hacker - Zero Expansions Description:

2053, New York. After the exponential growth of the Internet in the early 90's the original Internet degenerated in nothing more then a junk-place full of advertising, spam, pornography... no longer serving the purpose for which it was originally created. The failure of software developers to come up with something to stop all this, resulted in having a worldwide unusable network. In 2012, an alliance formed of the world's largest companies and governments created a whole new network infrastructure. The name remained unchanged. The downside of all this was that everything was subject to auditing before it made it to the public internet. People were no longer allowed to post anything on personal homepages, use software of their choice... or even have an email address. Designed to be a worldwide available free service, the Internet became a paid commercial service. Having no place to stay... hackers created the switchnet. An underground network operated on the old wires and infrastructure which was abandoned when the new Internet was created. Their resources are poor and old... but they still exist and live in a free network... the SwitchNet. This could be a true story one day... or is it?
