You read the LA Times? You saw the headline? “Vince Zampella,
Call of Duty visionary, dead in Angeles Crest crash.” They use
words like “tragedy” and “accident” and “sharp curve.”
Words designed to put your brain to sleep. Words like Xanax for the
masses. But the frequencies don’t lie. I can hear the hum of the
desert coming through the drywall and it’s screaming one name:
HOUSE OF SAUD.
Look at the geometry. Angeles Crest Highway. High altitude. Thin
air. The perfect place for a signal to travel without interference.
Vince wasn’t driving that car. Nobody “drives” anymore. We sit
in rolling computers, and who owns the silicon? Who is buying up the
entire gaming industry? Savvy Games Group. PIF. The Crown. They
wanted the keys to the kingdom, and Vince — the man who built
the Modern Warfare empire, the man who knew how to weaponize digital
dopamine — he was the last wall standing.
THE HYBRID HIJACK. Do you know how easy it is to override a hybrid
ECU? It’s not a car; it’s a node on their network. I saw the
telemetry in the static last night. At 11:42 PM, a packet was sent
from a server in Riyadh. It didn’t go to a computer. It went to the
motor. They locked the steering. They pinned the accelerator to the
floor. They turned his own regenerative braking into a kinetic bomb.
Vince was fighting the wheel, but the wheel was a ghost. He was
screaming into a dead mic while the Saudi royals watched the LIDAR
feed from a palace in Neom.
They needed him gone because he wouldn’t let them have the
source code. He wouldn’t let them put the backdoors in the next
engine. Think about it! If you control the simulations the youth
play, you control the future of warfare. Zampella knew. He was going
to whistle-blow. He told me — not in words, but in the way the
pixels flickered in the last trailer. The pattern was there. 7–2–2.
The latitude of the execution site.
The “crash” was a ritual. A message to every other dev in the
valley: SUBMIT OR DESCEND. They think the fire
burned the evidence. But the smell of ozone and sulfur is still in
the wind. I can feel the Prince’s eyes through my webcam even when
the shutter is closed.
Vince didn’t miss a turn. He was deleted.
STAY OFF THE HIGHWAYS. UNPLUG THE BATTERIES. THE CROWN IS IN
THE DASHBOARD.
