All of the covers in 2015 had a makeshift GPS overlay consisting of a compass with satellite locations and direction headings, along with a golden triangle Easter Egg that was different for each issue.  In addition, there were latitude and longitude coordinates (with latitude unintentionally spelled with an extra "t" in all four covers).

The order of the directions across the four seasons was North, East, West, South - which happened to spell "NEWS" - and each cover focused on a compound centered in a topical news event with 2600's unique hackeresque spin to it.  The news story dictated the location of the cover image - and the GPS pointed to it.  Additionally, a "hacked" tweet was added as an overlaid pop-up on the cover, further elucidating the subject.

Spring:  North - Svalbard Island in Norway, near the Svalbard Global Seed Vault.

A Twitter hashtag indicated that The Pirate Bay was coming back, a news story that was widely reported during this period.  While TPB is really Swedish, the location was picked because it was a Scandinavian fortress that we imagined was the secret location of TPB's new hidden data center, represented here as an icy fortress.

A ship, having struck the ice, is sinking, bearing the disappearing and once beloved RadioShack logo.

The hacked tweet reflected a real one that was sent out on UPI's feed, quoting the Pope as saying that World War Three had begun.

TPB's "phoenix rising" icon is seen below the tweet.  The compass Easter Egg was an Oscar, which was a nod to the film Citizenfour having won the best documentary award.
