Plot

Carmelo Bene is the director of a theater company that runs around various theaters in Europe, staging William Shakespeare 'Hamlet'. He himself also appears in real life to behave as the Prince of Denmark disinherited by his uncle and the whole of society; so immediately these situations merge with the actual plot of Shakespeare's work. Hamlet becomes an inept and becomes aware of it, although he manages to recover his throne usurped by the cruel uncle Claudio who killed his father. Kate is the only reason for life for Hamlet who, after her untimely death, celebrates her a curious funeral, declaring to the grave that she did well to die, not to exist thanks to his help.

gollark: The article mentions it was from some information for customers, so probably not anything like that...
gollark: 20 gigabytes would be a lot of datasheets. I think the thing mentioned there was source code for some things too.
gollark: Someone involved in leaking it, apparently.

gollark: That's on a *disk*, not network IO.
