Documerica is a Public Service Announcement sponsored by the 'Documerica Datalytics Initiative', a governmentwide plan made under The United States Department of Homeland Security. It aims to dematerialize all personal identification documents in order to increase surveillance efficiency made by a corporatist government (i.e., a Techno-Totalitarian Reich) through a 'Biometric Satellite Identification System'. In dialogue with Nat Pyper's Sci-Fi novel '19 in 2021', ‘Documerica!’ is set in a reality where documentation is made through social media connection.
