Due to a video of spiderman rescueing a civillian is uploaded to YouTube a voice identification company publically announces that Peter Parker, and many heroes follow suit with thier identities being harder to keep secret. HYDRA uses this to their benifit, making a website that allows people to upload their superhero photos and videos to the site to help discover who they are and where they go. Meanwhile a hacker from the hacktivist group the rising tide hacks directly into one of Iron Man's suits and controls it, but ends up crashing it into a group of pedestrians, Iron Man is publically shamed, but SHIELD back him up and find the hacker, arresting him. They announce that SHIELD will be monitoring the internet

The general population are outraged, as the internet is a free recource. Internet attacks on shield and the government are high, with HYDRA and AIM developing viruses to spread in this hotspot time, and then, the internet is shut down. Society falls into a battleground as many people die in passenger planes and many more are stuck abroad in other countries.

you know what, I have no idea where that was going with that. There's no conflict! idk That could work really well, but I don't know how we would fit in the heroes fighting against each other
