”...in East Carraway”
(“peek, pry, populate” in the background behind the man speaking to the podium)
“Today, you’re about to witness a new phase. Full on, weapons grade, red alert, world domination!”
...
“We have put a billion people’s private data in the public domain, and we have milked every penny we could in the process.”
(“inflate yourself online” in the background)
“And we have one of the youngest work forces in the world! An average age of only 14.4 years. That’s not just impressive. It’s revolutionary!”
(“peek, pry, populate” again in the background)
“Today. Right here. We are about to make the next step! Prepare to witness… the future!”

“The LifeInvader mobile device…A small personal computerized device. Now you’re going to be able to stay docked 24/7.”

It happens after Michael uses the antivirus to get rid of ads. Jay Norris, founder & CEO of “LifeInvader” gives a speech to the audience in a podium. Still think I made it up? Don’t believe me? You just have to go to this link and go to 41:10, where the speech starts. Then you’ll see:

Don’t get me wrong, I know people think the GTA series is only like “Fast & Furious”, just a bunch of wackos macking heists and stealing cars, but I think it’s more. I think it’s a real dystopia here. Well, enough chitchatting. What do you guys think?
