BROADSIDE Broadside #6251 - Yonatan NFT First Edition
Description
2037 America is a solarpunk utopia, but terms and conditions apply.
On the surface, this is a world of abundance. Many of humanity's current problems have been solved. Climate change is under control, and people have access to all kinds of renewable resources. Products, energy and food can be printed, generated or grown in an instant - just as long as you can afford to buy the copy-protected versions from Prota, a company that controls much of the nation's resources, not to mention the force of robot security Marshals that patrol the streets, checking nothing is printed illegally.
Like many Americans, the main problem for our hero and their family is rampant inequality. An ever-smaller circle of elites get richer, while working people struggle to pay for the renewable resources they could theoretically get for almost nothing, if a handful of companies didn't block access to them.
All this changes when our teenage hero hacks Broadside, their favorite AR game, and unwittingly breaks the copy protection not just on the game, but on everything Prota controls. Suddenly anything can be illegally printed, from EMP blasters to vehicles to solar panels, and all hell breaks loose. Prota strikes back, desperate to contain the hack. Our hero is left with no choice but to escape with the only people willing to protect them - the shadowy resistance movement that wants to overthrow Prota.
