There's a part where Violet starts freaking out calling them monsters and saying it's the end of the world because people are idiots--she seems to realize what is happening to them, how they are being stereotyped.
Yeah... they have this thing called 'Malfunctioning' (Hey, wanna go into Mal?) which is... pretty much their version of drugs--they get online, find a Mal site, and it hits them and they go on a trip D8. There's also meat farms, where meat is literally grown and if it has an eye/ear/etc it's mutated... and most bodies of water require wearing a special suit... and the kids are on the moon when they get hacked--because, obviously, by then all the planets are tourist areas XD.
Pictures your classmates. How dumb most of them sound. Imagine them in the future. Sounding just as stupid, if not stupider. Now, the internet is no longer outside your body. It's in your head, a chip, installed when you're very young as it grows into you. It's called the feed. It learns who you are, what you're like. You think it, it pulls it up. Eventually it pushes you into a stereotype--everyone slowly becomes part of a group weather they want to or not, because the feed pushes you to like certain things by advertising them always. The feed has the ability to shut down headaches--it's in your brain--and quell other stresses etc.
That's pretty much what the 'feed' is. The book is about some kids getting hacked and one of them, a girl named Violet, was seriously harmed by it--she had her feed installed when she was 9, which is very late--and she's losing control of her body and going to die. And Feedtech--the creators of the feed--won't help her.
