This summer, Wired writer Evan Ratliff wrote a story about how people erase their identities and start over. After it ran, he tried to disappear—spending 25 days on the lam until a few enterprising Wired readers tracked him down through some brilliant hacking and sleuthing.
Now we’re going to try the experiment again. Evan, Wired, Loneshark Games and I are working with Universal Pictures to do another, similar contest connected to the new film Repo Men: and this time we want you to go on the run. We need four applicants willing to disappear from their lives from late February to late March. If they can stay hidden for that time period, they’ll end up with $10,000 each. There’s more information, and an application, here. We’ll need to recruit hunters soon too; but now we just need folks who are willing to drop their lives and go.
