In this satirical installment, young Sami is summoned by Baba, the Stealsi leader, to propose new data theft ideas. Under pressure, Sami suggests stealing people's identities through eyeball scans, exchanging them for worthless digital currency dubbed "GlobalDystopiaCoin." Baba enthusiastically embraces this dystopian scheme, seeing it as an opportunity to exploit the pacified masses addicted to social media and propaganda podcasts. The episode highlights the manipulative tactics of tech oligarchs, using popular platforms like the "Rambo Rogaine" podcast to spread their ideas. Sami's potential reward - access to tasks on Lizard Island - underscores the corrupting allure of power and acceptance in this satirical world. This chapter serves as a sharp critique of cryptocurrency hype, invasive biometric data collection, and the exploitation of personal information in the digital age.
