Its 2050, local drives are outlawed. All devices have no writable storage and only a read only memory containing the basic os needed to connect to "the cloud". In order to use your device, you need to pay a monthly subscription, to save your files, you need to pay a even higher subscription depending on your storage desires. If your cloud account has "undesirable" content, it is removed from your account without warning. If you stop paying your subscription, all data is immediately removed. All content you want to see is temporarily loaded to ram and is purged after you consume it. Ads require detection of your eyes looking at the display to progress. Biometric verification is required to use your device and any given device is tied to a person's identity, can only be used by that person, and must be surrendered when no longer wanted. Welcome to the future!
"PLEASE DRINK VERIFICATION CAN TO CONTINUE"
You took the words out of my mouth, lol.
