I had a vision of the future. Out of nowhere, during an ordinary meal of mashed potatoes, I was overwhelmed by a vibrant wave that stunned and disoriented me, and when the wave receded, several phantasmagorical images remained in my memory. To avoid forgetting them, I immediately transferred them to a file, and now Iām publishing them.
I eagerly await April 12, 2026 ā the day related to my first prophetic vision ā to see whether it was truly prophetic or merely a failure of creative imagination.
So, I prophesy thatā¦
1. The presentation of the "site with a heavenly IP"
On April 12, 2026, an article titled "Hidden Filming with a Virtual Camera" by user nostro808 will be published on Habr. The author will provide a link to an obscure resource that will soon be titled "site with a heavenly IP." This resource will allow users to place a virtual camera (equipped with a microphone) anywhere in space and receive high-quality images from it. The camera must be installed using geographic coordinates, specifying the height above the earth's surface.
2. The avalanche of video releases online
In the first four hours after the presentation of the "site with a heavenly IP," there will be an avalanche of videos released, recorded using the new technology. Most of the videos will be personal; however, not all: a few media personalities will be showcased. Many of them will appear in an inappropriate light for the public. Furthermore, through live broadcasts from secret locations, several state secrets will be revealed. However, unlike the media personalities, nobody will pay attention to the state secrets due to the overall turmoil and confusion.
3. The removal of the article by nostro808
Five hours after the presentation of the "site with a heavenly IP," the article on Habr will be deleted, and the profile of nostro808 will be permanently banned. The real name of nostro808 will not be established: neither immediately nor later.
4. Attempts to block the "site with a heavenly IP"
The Roskomnadzor will block the "site with a heavenly IP" six hours after its presentation. However, the site will remain accessible not only through TOR, DNS servers and VPN-services, but also through any provider, despite all their efforts. Ironically, destroying the site itself, located in the ru domain zone, will prove impossible due to its indefiniteness. hosting and the website owner. Hence the name of the resource: "site with a heavenly IP." On IT forums, this topic will become the most discussed. The second place for many subsequent years will be held by the topic of installing a virtual camera at an arbitrary point in space.
5. The first limitation when using the virtual camera.
On April 13, 2026, the first limitation of using the virtual camera will become apparent: on the "site with a heavenly IP," it is impossible to indicate a spatial point above or below 2033 meters above the ground. Although this limitation is absent in the site interface, if the specified limits are exceeded, the virtual camera is set at a distance of 2033 meters. Subsequently, the maximum distance will be clarified. The number 2033, 27272727... will be called "minimax H" or simply "minimax."
6. The "heavenly IP" technology.
On the same day, through the efforts of intrigued enthusiasts, it will become clear that the "heavenly IP" operates on the principle of a decentralized internet, parts of which are embedded in the BIOS of computer devices. This applies to all computer devices on planet Earth. How they are embedded is unknown to science. Replacing the boards with new ones will not help, since after some time (from 3 to 5 hours after starting to use the device) the BIOS will be spontaneously overwritten. Various hypotheses will be proposed, most of which will boil down to the observation that the technologies of the "site with a heavenly IP" are beyond human capabilities. Society will begin to understand that something extraordinary is happening with earthly civilization. The concepts of the "Day of Judgment" and interference by alien civilizations in earthly affairs will gain renewed popularity.
7. Sporadic surge of crime.
On April 14, 2026, law enforcement will record the first crimes associated with the use of the 'website with a heavenly IP'. These will primarily involve theft of personal property (as it's now trivial to determine if anyone is present inside a location). There will also be crimes of passion: two husbands will kill their wives caught with lovers.
8. The Reaction of the International Community
On April 25, 2026, an urgent UN meeting will be held regarding information security. World leaders will make statements about the dangers of using unproven technologies and urge Russia to 'place the information resource posing a threat to the stable existence of democratic states under universal control.' Frantic bilateral, trilateral, and multilateral consultations in various formats will ensue. Major world powers will seriously begin considering the issue of globally blocking the internet.
9. Ban on Posting Videos Taken with a Virtual Camera
In May 2026, social media platforms, starting with 'Facebook', will adopt rules prohibiting the posting of videos taken with a virtual camera. However, distinguishing a video taken with a virtual camera from one taken with a regular camera will be nearly impossible, so the bans will be ineffective. Moreover, visitors to the 'website with a heavenly IP', even without posting videos on social media, will continue to actively discuss the information downloaded from there.
10. The Second Limitation on Using a Virtual Camera
On May 11, 2026, it will be revealed that in certain cases, virtual cameras display not a full but a distorted reality. If a user views the 'website with a heavenly IP', their recording on the virtual camera will show a blank screen of their monitor. Thus, through observation via a virtual camera, it will be impossible to determine what specific information the original user is extracting from the 'website with a heavenly IP'. There's no way to find out who accessed what information recorded with a virtual camera. This feature will be termed 'protection from deceit' in the media.
11. Ban on Accepting Evidence in Court
On June 1, 2026, amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the law 'On Mass Media,' and other laws will come into effect in Russia, implementing various restrictions on the use of information obtained from the 'heavenly IP site.' Videos recorded on a virtual camera will no longer be accepted as evidence in court. Justification: distortion of real information ('protection from the cunning').
12. Technology for Identifying People
On June 9, 2026, a new technology will be announced on the 'heavenly IP site': broadcasting from a virtual camera based on a photograph. Now, it will be enough to upload a photograph to the site to establish a virtual camera at the location of the specified person. The camera is initially set up about 1.5 meters in front of the observed person's face. The number 1.5333333ā¦ (the exact distance for the initial setup of the virtual camera) will be called the 'h jump,' or simply 'jump.' When initially setting up the virtual camera on the site, geographical coordinates are recorded, allowing the camera to be easily moved to a more convenient position.
13. Publication of Videos with Public Officials
Social media will begin to see an influx of videos featuring public officials. Previously, determining the location of public officials based on geographical coordinates was problematic, but now, using a photograph, it is easy. Mass requests are uniform, so the videos are also similar and, in principle, indistinguishable from those of ordinary people. The presence of doppelgƤngers among public officials adds a bit of excitement.
14. On the Harmfulness of Visiting the 'Heavenly IP Site'
On June 14, 2026, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation will hold an emergency conference, during which it will announce that visiting the "site with a heavenly IP" adversely affects visitors' health. For the first time in world practice, the term "hypnogramming" will be used. A representative of the ministry will officially state that visiting the "site with a heavenly IP" provokes heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, cancer, diarrhea, and a general decline in well-being. The population is advised to refrain from visiting this health-hazardous resource.
15. The Technology of Capturing the Past
On June 21, 2026, the "site with a heavenly IP" will announce a technology for capturing the past. Now, the virtual camera can record not only the present but also the past ā though not indefinitely. You can delve into the past up to 12:08:34 on April 18, 1816. This temporal limit will be called "the second birth." The reason for this name, technical explanations, and even assumptions are absent, but the mere possibility of viewing events after "the second birth" is more than enough for cultural and psychological shock. The world will freeze in amazement, and then, as it becomes acquainted with the documented events of the past, it will begin to go mad.
16. The Law "On the Unacceptability of Desecrating the Past"
Two days after an information surge unprecedented in history, the law "On the Unacceptability of Desecrating the Past" will come into force urgently in Russia. According to this law, publishing information about the past captured by a virtual camera will be prohibited in the absence of documentary (notarized) confirmations. However, the law will not work: the alluring possibility of witnessing the past is so attractive that it will not stop billions of internet users.
17. Recognition of an External Attack on Earthly Civilization
On June 29, 2026, the UN emergency committee will unanimously adopt a communiquƩ recognizing the fact of an external information attack on human civilization through the creation of a 'site with a heavenly IP'. It will be reported that the party responsible for the attack is unknown. The emergency committee will warn the planet's population: the data reflected on the 'site with a heavenly IP' is falsified for unspecified purposes. If the data accidentally corresponds to reality, it serves as a distraction from the falsified data.
18. New revolutionary products from 'Gostar'
In September 2026, 'Gostar' will launch its first product related to 'heavenly IP': the so-called lifazer. The program will allow users to obtain ready-made informational reports on specific individuals or events from the 'site with a heavenly IP'. Connection to the 'site with a heavenly IP' is performed via API, followed by automatic processing and condensation of the captured material, with comments added (at the user's discretion: subtitles or voiceover). The lifazer from 'Gostar' will gain immense user recognition and become the standard of a new product line. In just a few months, the little-known research lab 'Gostar' will turn into a globally recognized corporation. 'Google' and 'Yandex' will rush to catch up but will be too late: precious time will be lost.
19. Lifakers and comparazzi ā new professions
By the end of 2026, humanity will gradually adapt to the new reality. New professions will emerge, such as lifakers and comparazzi. Lifakers are historian-scientists investigating the intricate twists of the past through online viewing. Comparazzi are journalists and bloggers specializing in finding significant (usually scandalous) events that standard lifakers cannot uncover.
20. Emouser ā a new way to relax
On February 2, 2027, the corporation 'Gostar' will present a new relaxation product ā the Emoosher. This program will allow users to generate videos from the past with a specified emotional tone and intelligence level. In the fine settings, in addition to the required emotional tone, the desired period, language, and approximate theme must be specified. The Emoosher from 'Gostar' will independently determine the user's level of intelligence based on their prior interactions with the Lifeazer.
21. Apumentori ā The New Art
Based on Lifeazers, a new art form emerges ā Apumentori: a selection of documentary footage that demonstrates, without titles or narration, some significant idea. The selection can focus on a single character, event, location, or object, with the key feature of Apumentori being an idea that is hinted at but not articulated. Challenging the materials of Apumentori in court is impossible due to the lack of authored text and the strict documentary nature of the materials.
22. New State Policy Regarding the 'Site with Heavenly IP'
The commercial exploitation of the 'Site with Heavenly IP' will compel the global community to reassess its stance on this resource, especially since it remains indestructible. The site owner will remain anonymous, and the technology behind the virtual camera will not be revealed; the BIOS rewriting process will remain unknown. Furthermore, a simple technology for broadcasting the virtual camera onto any reflective surface will emerge. As a result, governments worldwide will begin to recognize the right to exist for the 'Site with Heavenly IP,' while simultaneously ignoring information that they find undesirable. There will need to be a fundamental reassessment of the tactics of political and social institutions, particularly those that come into contact with state secrets (which, with the advent of the 'Site with Heavenly IP,' will become less secretive). Some countries will enshrine huptste in their constitutions.
23. Church of Heavenly IP
In 2028, the municipal authorities of Quebec will register the Church of Heavenly IP. According to its teachings, nostro808 is a new incarnation of Christ on Earth, the 'site with a heavenly IP' is a sacred resource, Habr is a precursor resource, and the Day of Judgment will arrive at the moment the 'site with a heavenly IP' goes offline.
24. The division of people regarding the 'heavenly IP'
Public opinion regarding the new technology will be divided. Conservatives will regard the 'site with a heavenly IP' as an external - most likely, extraterrestrial - diversion and, citing 'protection from the wicked,' will refuse to acknowledge the 'heavenly' videos as reflective of reality. These individuals will continue to live as before, deliberately ignoring the information received from the 'site with a heavenly IP' - only that which is unacceptable to their psychology. Realists, on the other hand, will consider the information received from the 'site with a heavenly IP' to be absolutely reliable and will use it, albeit only as necessary. After several years, the differences between conservatives and realists will nearly disappear, especially given that the life analyzers from 'Gostar' (based on sampling and data interpretation) will be able to interpret past events arbitrarily. The number of those willing to verify the correctness of the sampling, spending personal time visiting the 'site with a heavenly IP,' will decrease. Such people will be contemptuously called 'snoopers' - in the sense that they intrude where they don't belong.
25. The technology of capturing the future
On December 23, 2028, the 'site with a heavenly IP' will announce the technology for capturing the futureā¦
On the designated date, the phantasmagorical vision receded, and I was left before a plate of cold mashed potatoes, stunned by the information that had just inundated me. Will anyone believe the terrifying prospect that has opened before me or consider it a product of creative imagination? How am I to know?! In any case, my duty to humanity is fulfilled: the prophecy is recorded and published. I can take a breath and finish my meal, which was so unexpectedly and inopportunely interrupted.
