Have you the reader ever thought how life will look like not in the near future but like fifty years from now? Will humanity be existent and if so how will we be living? Many of us carry out our daily lives with little consideration for the future.

Craig W. Stanfill gives us what I may term as a glimpse of what time is yet to unveil to us. Kim, is supposedly a shareholder in this society which has gone totally AI with companies heavily relying on this resource to carry out complex tasks like tracking people's whereabouts all over and keeping an eye on their creators plus a penalty for law breakers at a whim. Kim being resistant goes head to head with the AIs top. We are left to wonder if she will pull out successfully.

Terms of Service borrows a lot from the future while taking us back to the colonial times, freedom should be dispensable to all. It is only achieved when one isn't compeled to go against their wish in order to do something beneficial to another party. Many sects in this world actually believe freedom is like a basic right but will an AI world guarantee that? The book shows how human beings can be complacent at times knowing very well they are undergoing infringement. The book touches on matters siring kids where the act is slowly being faced out as life conditions seem to disallow the same. Moreover the author seems to find another way of accomplishing the same.

It's high time we actually look at the ever increasing world population before the situation gets out of hand and true to this, the author imagines characters who have a conservative view and that they don't go with the propagation of the human race given its current situation. The book is exceptionally edited with no errors. The book has also been divided proportionately allowing for memorability. Sexuality is given a lot of attention by the author and this mirrors the prevalent situation now. I found nothing to dislike in the book.

I rate the book 5 out of 5 stars due to its coherence about the future and it's exceptional editing and quite friendly font and spacing. I would recommend the book to young adults who take interest in fictitious books as it has something they can learn from.
