Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom
Cory Doctorow
On The Skids In The Transhuman Future Jules is a young man barely a century old.

Now in the keeping of a network of ''ad-hocs'' who keep the classic attractions running as they always have, enhanced with only the smallest high-tech touches. Now, though, the ''ad hocs'' are under attack. A new group has taken over the Hall of the Presidents, and is replacing its venerable audioanimatronics with new, immersive direct-to-brain interfaces that give guests the illusion of being Washington, Lincoln, and all the others. For Jules, this is an attack on the artistic purity of Disney World itself. Worse: it appears this new group has had Jules killed. This upsets him. (It's only his fourth death and revival, after all.) Now it's war....
