“Promising to unify us and democratize information, the Internet has instead become a weaponized divider and a power tool for propagandists. People who have hundreds of friends on social media report that they have fewer real friends. And they are having difficulty finding mates. In every developed nation, people now marry later or do not marry at all. Most concerning—a record number of suicides and overdose deaths tell the same story—that millions of people feel the future is not a desirable place to be. And billions who choose to stay in this world seek escape via a life lived in the safe virtual worlds of video games and A.I. chatbots.”

“Murphy. Sina mbinu zozote za kujikinga kama unavyojua; mbali na mafunzo ya FBI. Baada ya kumrusha nyoka wa Lisa nywele zilinisisimka. Wazo la kukimbia likaja ghafla. Kukimbia hata hivyo nikashindwa kwa kuhofu huenda wangeniona. Hivyo, nikarudi nyuma ya nyumba na kupanda mti na kujificha huko. Bunduki zilipolia, nilijua wamekuua. Ila kitu kimoja kikanishangaza: mashambulizi hayakuonekana kukoma. Kitu hicho kikanipa nguvu kwamba huenda hujafa na ulikuwa ukipambana nao. Kimya kilipotokea nilijua umewashinda nguvu, kitu ambacho kumbe kilikuwa kweli. Nilipokutafuta baadaye lakini bila kukuona kutokana na kukurukakara za maadui niliamua kwenda katika gari ili nije na gari kama mgeni, nikitegemea waniruhusu kuingia ili nipate hakika kama wamekuua au bado uko hai. Wasingenifanya chochote. Kimaajabu, niliposhuka katika mti ili nikimbie katika gari, niliona gari ikija kwa kasi. Kuangalia vizuri nikakuta ni Ferrari, halafu nikashangaa nani anaendesha gari ya Lisa!” Murphy alitabasamu tena na kuendelea kusikiliza. “Sijui moyo wangu ulikuwaje. Sikuogopa tena! Badala yake nilikaza mwendo na kuendelea kuifuata huku nikipata wazo hapohapo kwamba mtu aliyekuwemo akiendesha hakuwa adui. Adui angeingia katika gari na kunisubiri aniteke nyara.” Debbie alitulia. “Ulihisi ni mimi?” Murphy aliuliza. “Nilihisi ni mtu tu mwema amekuja kunisaidia ... au mwizi wa gari. Hata hivyo, baadaye nilijua ni wewe na furaha yangu yote ilirudi.”

“Debbie alilia. Alilia kwa nguvu zake zote. Alijua tayari alishampoteza Murphy na yote yale huenda alisababisha yeye. Bila kujuana na Vijana wa Tume huenda wasingepigwa. Debbie Hakukata tamaa. Alikumbuka kitu halafu akamwita dereva. Alimwomba dereva amkimbize Roma Notre haraka ilivyowezekana. Alidhani alijua majambazi walikokuwa wakikimbilia na kuna kitu alitaka kufanya. Dereva akamkubalia na kuondoka kuelekea Roma Notre. Njiani Debbie hakuacha kulia. Aliwaza alivyompoteza Marciano, akawaza kumpoteza na Murphy. Jibu alilolipata ni kumwokoa Murphy kwa gharama yoyote ile.”
