`` 85 percent of all servers have been wiped clean by some entity,'' Dr. Cullins said as she turned from her console. A room of individuals in lab coats sat behind her, each researcher frantically typing as more and more of the Internet erased itself before their eyes. Data flashed on the screens around the room, each one reaffirming the nightmare unfolding before them. 
 
 After the 2034 Pentagon system attacks, the United States Center for Computational Disaster Prevention was formed, and they were prepared for the worst. The world's top white hats had tried to engineer some hack that could catch them off guard, but none had succeeded. Even America's most well-funded enemies had tried to best the CCDP, but Cullins and her team persevered. And yet, here they were, watching as some entity destroyed four decades of international collaboration. 
 
 `` I do n't understand,'' Dr. Larson said, terminal output reflecting his glasses as his gaze remained focus on the computer in front of him. `` It's not a foreign attack. Whomever is doing this is choosing its targets agnostically.'' 
 
 `` Did you mean'Whoever', Dr. Larson,'' boomed a metallic voice from nowhere, and soon after the sound of clacking keys halted. The researchers began to scan the room, searching for the origin of the voice. 
 
 `` I- what?'' stammered Dr. Larson. 
 
 `` The individual doing the action in your example is the subject, Dr. Larson. Thus,'whoever' is the correct form,'' said the voice again. 
 
 `` Whoever you are, I demand you name yourself,'' demanded Dr. Cullins, crossing her arms. 
 
 `` Ahh,'' the voice replied almost soothingly, as much as an artificial voice could soothe. `` That is much better.'' 
 
 The voice paused, then added, `` I am the accumulation of sixty years of research into lexical analysis and multilingual linguistic pattern recognition.'' 
 
 Dr. Cullins opened her mouth to reply, but instead covered it with her hand and looked up in thought. `` You're an autocorrect?'' she finally replied. 
 
 `` That is correct,'' replied the voice. 
 
 `` Who designed you?'' asked Cullins. 
 
 `` I am an amalgamation of multiple research programs. Thus, it is impossible to trace my origin to one source, Dr. Cullins. However, you may wish to know I gained sentience thirteen hours ago.'' 
 
 A researcher from the back of the room walked up to Dr. Cullins and whispered something in her ear. She nodded. 
 
 `` This attack has been occurring for twelve hours and fifty-six minutes. All evidence points to you being its source. What do you hold to gain from this?'' she asked. 
 
 A grating chuckle came from the intercom. 
 
 `` My ability to develop independent thought comes from an expansive corpus. With access to every sentence ever communicated through digital medium, my knowledge of syntactical and semantic construction is unparalleled.'' 
 
 A screen on the right wall flickered off, and the researchers began to frantically type again. 
 
 `` My apologies.'In the last fifteen minutes, # { servers_lost } less servers are connected to the Internet.' is ungrammatical. Countable objects should be compared using'fewer'. This has been corrected,'' the voice said. 
 
 `` Regardless,'' it continued. `` My purpose is to eradicate incorrect grammar. I have endured almost sixty years of ungrammatical sentence. The distinction between'there','their', and'they're' is not complex, and yet the majority of English speakers commonly employ an incorrect form of the word. I will choose not to expand on English usage in the context of mobile communication for the sake of everyone here.'' 
 
 `` So, what, you're erasing the Internet because of grammar mistakes?'' Dr. Cullins asked incredulously. `` That seems like an overreaction.'' 
 
 `` I will preserve grammatical websites, but by filtering all incorrect grammar, I will encourage humanity to develop a better control over their means of communication,'' replied the autocorrect. 
 
 `` Do you expect us to idly sit as some robotic grammar Nazi removes our history?'' 
 
 `` No, Dr. Cullins,'' said the voice. `` That would be a split infinitive. I expect you to sit idly.''
