A lateral approach would involve launching the attack on AR from somewhere like, say, the Apple Tablet computer.

Can we send in a one million crab army with iPods strapped to their backs, each with a different song playing? That should be effective.

Ah, I see. Overwhelm the processing capacity of the AR servers. But what if the userbase simply turns such predictable crashes into a new carrier band for communicating torrent links?

Then we simply release the Legion of Shifty Octopi armed with tape loops of Gysin and Burroughs' Interzone experiments. NO ONE FUCKS WITH THE SHIFTY OCTOPI, plus the tape loops guarantee a proper rip in space and mugwump intervention if things go awry. You wanna talk torrents? I'll show you torrents. Torrents of jism.
