Unvirtual - E-book - ePub

In a not far off dystopian future, a team of hardware engineers develop a cheap to manufacture computer capable of generating such convincing virtual realities that it's absolutely impossible to differentiate between simulation and reality. The dangers of this technology become apparent when test users begin to question their own reality and can't shake the nagging feeling that they are still in a simulation.
The only way to find out is to commit suicide and see if one wakes up connected to a computer, but what if this is just the continuation of the simulation? Rogue government elements recognise this technology as a solution to the world's stubborn global economic problems and plan to make these computers available to every single person on the planet.
