Scenario: A Regular Future

A Regular Future is a scenario created by User:IAmNotXi. It just portrays a normal future. No third world war causing the planet's political geography to collapse, No futuristic, cyberpunk and dystopian cities run by megacorporations rising up, and no endless pages of American elections.

Economy

The most productive retailers include online shopping giant Amazon, Dollar General, Ross Stores, Walmart, Kroger, CVS, Walgreens and the Home Depot.

Technology

 * Privacy in the internet has been limited to certain websites such as DuckDuckGo, as internet, tech and social media companies such as Google, Discord, Facebook, Skype, Apple and Amazon have been tracking conversations, search activity and other data for cybersecurity and advertising algorithm purposes.
 * The amount of circulation of printed media such as newspapers and magazines have significantly dropped, with Conde Nast, The Philippine Star, The New York Times and others ceasing their printed operations, instead sticking to online news and videos.
