How many times
have you heard about someone losing their job because of posted
comments on social media? You've also no doubt experienced phishing
scams—though hopefully haven't been the victim of one—perpetrated
through your own inbox. Cyber-bullying, computer viruses, NSA
monitoring—these are just a few of the other concerns that come
with the use of the internet and texting. Location stamps and other
private information through social media and our phones provide
stalkers (and worse) with easy access to our lives and those of our
children. Advertisers are also enterprising on the lowering of our
guard, as the last shreds of our privacy are being stripped away.
Even our own “smart” TV's actually monitor and record the
conversations we have around it, and then feed that data to the
manufacturer. (Don't believe me? Just Google “Samsung Smart TV
Listening) With all this technology comes great sacrifice, but are we
concerned enough about what we've already lost?
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
