The Game Was Rigged From The Start
"However, not everyone can afford to “opt out of the update”, to log off into neo-luddism. But there are other ways to win a broken, unplayable game: through tactical hypertrophy. Hacking, cheating, piracy, bootleg mods and gaming the algorithm. Creating informal networks within and between games. Better still to create your own encrypted protocol, distributed throughout the nodes of the technetronic control grid, to only tangentially participate in the various virtual-worlds, to engage tactically with game mechanics that you can bend to your will. Make a game of creating your own language, codes and cosmography. Wherever you are forced to interface with their virtual environment, think about how you can take it apart."
