In a near-future San Francisco, overworked software engineer Alex Thompson uncovers the dark truth behind NeuroLink’s Upload Protocol: a promise of digital immortality that secretly harvests human consciousness for corporate profit. When a glitch leads him to Lena, a “deleted” journalist trapped in the system, Alex becomes an unlikely rebel. Racing against time, he infiltrates the company’s headquarters, triggers a catastrophic shutdown, and sparks a revolution that gives people true choice over their minds and futures. A gripping tale of corporate greed, digital resistance, and reclaimed humanity.
