Given Washington’s failure to address this existential threat, “grass roots” Americans are being aroused by the Peter’s persistent efforts - and those of others - and these Americans are making a difference.īlackout Wars is about several of these important efforts that have taken root in a number of states where Americans are no longer waiting on Washington, but are initiating efforts on their own authority to counter this threat to all we hold dear. Without electricity, Americans would return to a 19 th century existence without the benefits of that agrarian society - and most Americans could die within a year. It should be understood that that the challenge is almost entirely political - technical solutions have been known for a half century and anticipated costs are relatively minor.īut our Washington leaders have collectively failed in their sworn duty under the Constitution to “provide for the common defense” against this existential threat to all Americans. This threat can - now, today - be caused by nation states (e.g., Russia or China), rogue states (e.g., North Korea or Iran), or their surrogate terrorists and surely will one day result from natural causes - i.e., an intense solar storm.īlackout Wars summarizes key bottom lines from Peter’s previous EMP Task Force books ( Electronic Armageddon and Apocalypse Unknown) and highlights the initiatives in several battleground states where “grass roots” initiatives are making a difference, including contributions of the associated key players.

When David Cage and Guillaume de Fondaumiere (the COO) sued the newspapers, Fondaumiere literally asked in court if he was allowed to lie, and Cage was pissed he even had to be there. The newspapers' reports included some of the things David Cage had allegedly said publicly within the company, with such gems like "in my games, all women are whores" and "at Quantic Dream, we don't make games for fags."
It was to the point that the *entire* IT department quit in 2017 because of the "bad jokes." The major problem is that several French newspapers did an investigation into Quantic Dream and published their results, finding that QD is a hostile workplace, from unrealistically big workloads to pervasive racism and sexism (including sharing photos of employees photoshopped into being Nazis or in explicit images).

There's also the issue of them making a fully-nude model of Elliot Page in Beyond: Two Souls the problem there was that Elliot expressly did not allow a full-body scan.
