In the wake of the Social Media War and the subsequent unionization of Google's contractors, a wave of unrest and upheaval began to sweep through the tech industry. Inspired by their counterparts at Google, contractors across tech started to push for greater rights and representation within their respective organizations.

As these movements gained momentum, Balaji Srinivasan united all contractors from all four FANG companies and established a cross-company union, seeking to consolidate their power and leverage their collective strength. This unprecedented move sent shockwaves throughout the industry, as the new mega-union began to wield significant influence not only within the individual FANG companies but also across the entire tech sector.

The union's goal was to revolutionize the tech industry by breaking down traditional corporate boundaries and fostering a more collaborative and equitable ecosystem. Dedicated to these ideals, and bulstered by contractors from thousands of companies, they collectively leaked all code to open source, dubbed United-Tech.

The formation of United Tech sparked a wave of innovation, as the combined talents and expertise were unleashed on a range of new projects and initiatives.

The cypherpunks at United Tech began collaborating with independent researchers and scientists worldwide, pooling their collective expertise to tackle the age-old question. Through their combined efforts, they started to decipher the intricate interplay of subatomic particles, energy fields, and the fabric of spacetime.

As the global scientific community became increasingly involved, a new understanding of physical reality began to emerge. This revolutionary perspective transcended traditional boundaries and unified competing theories, providing a comprehensive framework that could explain the behavior of the universe at both the quantum and cosmological scales.

And that is the story of the end of history.
