A rifle-bearing, bearded rebel with crossed bandoliers stands atop a mainframe. His belt bears the RSS logo. The mainframe is on a floor made of a busy, resistor-studded circuit board. The background is a halftoned RSS logo. Around the rebel is a halo of light.
Uncle Sam as an old-fashioned cop with a gleaming IRS badge on his chest. He stands in a circle of wildly gesticulating, furious, old-fashioned rich guys. The background is a dark green, extremely magnified portrait of Benjamin Franklin from the middle of a US $100 bill.

The interior of a luxury sedan as seen from the driver’s PoV, with the driver’s hands on the wheel. Mounted to the vent is a Spotify ‘Car Thing’ — a $90 tablet designed to stream Spotify music.

A skeletal robed figure, clutching a sheaf of documents hea
