This had gone so wrong.
The phone app was supposed to influence those that used it to buy the required products.
But just like any drug, the users became addicted.
They never bought anything but if anyone tried to take the phone off them they screamed attacked and bit anyone who tried.
They were drawn to Milton Keynes, and non-addicts were forced to move out for their own safety.
High-Level discussions took place and the only solution was the decommissioning of the app and the total extermination of the addicts.
They were now smartphone zombies.
They had to be eliminated.
