Get the cyberduced mug.A collective term for the flagrant and deliberate misuse of a computer and/or the internet, including (but not limited to) e-mail and comment spam, spyware, viruses, password harvesting, and the like.
Refers specifically to the kind of dickish behavior that is only able to exist because of computers. For example, simply e-mailing a dickish letter to a single person would not qualify as cyberdickery because that person could have, in bygone centuries, just as easily sent that dickish letter via paper mail. Writing a dickish letter and sending it to ten million people, however, is something only made practical by the advent of e-mail, and is a classic example of cyberdickery.

Setting up and maintaining a mailing list would be easy if it weren't for all the rampant cyberdickery in the world.

Get the Cyberpunking mug.It is set in the future, but not far enough into it to accurately predict things. Either a very corrupt government or a very corrupt corporation is running the joint. Expect the protagonist to either be a cyborg, a hacker, or both. If said protagonist is male, they're probably a total jerk. If the protagonist is female, expect their only character trait to be "capable." Expect the protagonist to at some point have a graphic sex scene that you didn't ask for. Expect virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and drug addictions to be an important part of the plot. Sometimes, genetic experimentation or nanotechnology is also thrown in there for good measure. Expect philosophical questions to be asked a lot (especially ones regarding a character's "humanity"). There is no countryside here, just a shit ton of metallic skyscrapers lined with neon lights and advertisements. Even if it's not set in Asia, expect to see a LOT of East Asian cultural influence (particularly in the neon advertising and the way people dress). The crime rate here is usually high. The villains often take the role of a crime lord, a ruthless businessman, a killer robot/cyborg, a mysterious hacker, or a shady government agent. Body horror may or may not be present. The story is often very bleak in tone, but sometimes ends on a good note just to be different.
