Subscribers to “This Mobile Will Change Your Life” will receive SMS orders they must carry out immediately.

Orders vary from “kiss the nearest tall stranger” to “Walk into a police station, tell them you’re finally giving yourself up, then remain totally silent” or “It’s 2am: everybody meet in your nearest cemetery dressed as zombies, then march on the town centre”.

If subscribers obey the 10 instructions a month, their life is guaranteed to change.

“Most people’s lives are already dominated by their mobile phone. We’re taking this one step further by making them literally slaves to their mobile,” said Ben Carey, who, along with Henrik Delehag, imagined the “service”.

This technology turned evil reminds me of Christophe Bruno ‘s WiFi-SM, a wireless patch to stick on your body to feel the global pain. It detects the information from approximately 4,500 news sources worldwide, looks for specific keywords such as death, kill, murder, torture, rape, war, virus etc. Each time it finds one of them, WiFi-SM device sends you an electric impulse.
