"Just block or mute their account, eh.." would be carried to a whole new level - in actual life!
- pests 2y agoThis is close to a Black Mirror episode. Z-Eyes anyone? Z-Ears?
- latentsea 2y agoBlack Mirror was a documentary.
- seoulmetro 2y agoMost episodes are just slightly more invasive and unrealistic versions of technology we have had for ages rather than the usual "they saw the future".
- pests 2y agoI think you are being too dismissive. We watch ads, not by force, but voluntarily for free services or currencies in mobile games. Politicians can do basically whatever they want. We have cameras and even glasses that record everything we do. V-Tubers are more popular by the minute. People get blackmailed for their online activities, wrong as they might be. Kids walk around with parent-forced app's to track their location and online life. Robot dogs are being sold to the public and being used by the military. People care more about filming something or the documentary than the event itself.
- voidUpdate 2y agoJust to nitpick one point, I personally think we've passed the peak of popularity for vtubers and it will settle down to a slightly lower level. Having been one myself, I've seen the other side and I think a combination of lockdown and the launch of Holo-EN made a lot of people try it, before realising it didn't work for them
- seoulmetro 2y agoYes. These aren't new concepts that sprung up after Black Mirror. If I'm being dismissive it's because these things can be dismissed as revolutionary.
