The constant need of the virtual paranoid is to be seen and disappear, to be available and to shut down, to be everywhere and nowhere – simplifying the essence of existence to online and offline – pile of 0's and 1's - that are being supplied by our local electric company. The fear of being watched has been well practiced by the virtual paranoid. The Internet is after him – Google, ad makers, the government, hackers, Microsoft, and terrorists – all chase after the virtual paranoid, and they all want to bring him and his virtual space down.
But the virtual paranoid is meaningless. He will neither act nor cooperate. He is a prisoner of actual solitude within the virtual space he created. His real life logic can be summarized in online and offline too, he tends to demand his needs in a click. Can his parts be replaced?
