Evidence of the Future, Volume 2 - Evidence of the Future, #2

From a mother who trades her son's privacy for her other son's freedom, to a creative genius whose thoughts become corporate property, to a recruitment specialist who questions whether she's offering salvation or servitude—these stories illuminate the human cost of our technological bargains. Each narrative reveals intimate moments of decision and consequence, where ordinary people confront extraordinary ethical dilemmas in a society increasingly mediated by screens, algorithms, and implanted devices.

This gripping collection of speculative fiction stories peers into our near future, where the devices meant to protect us become instruments of surveillance, where artificial intelligence shapes our children's lives in ways we cannot predict, and where the line between innovation and invasion grows dangerously thin.

These are not distant warnings but reflections of choices we face today. With unflinching honesty and emotional depth, Evidence of the Future, Volume 2 examines how surveillance capitalism, artificial intelligence, and digital connectivity are reshaping family bonds, childhood innocence, personal autonomy, and the very nature of human privacy. The future is already here—and these stories ask whether we're prepared for what we've created.
