This may be one of the best episodes of the Black Mirror series. Without such novel applications, the ethical changes brought about by technological evolution have given us a set of punches with the increasingly addictive social apps around us. The brilliance lies not in new values, communicating lifestyles, but in the true reflection of reality, so the most brilliant is also the most profound.
It's just a glimpse, it's a life. In the play, it may be that he picked up the phone and glanced at it, but will a notification or a splash screen in life kill us? What's wrong with an unconscious glance, infallible but deadly, this is the most difficult part of the contradiction.
The most hacked in this episode may be the social media staff, but conversely, what is wrong with the staff? He designs addictive apps, but everyone else does it? If the user stickiness he makes is not as good as others, should he still eat it? Bad money drives out good money. Once this development moves, the result will be so cruel.
At the end, everyone took a hurried look. The founder continued his meditation. He closed his eyes, and it seemed that everything was gone. It was a small episode of a few minutes in daily life, but what he said on the phone was true. ? I think it is true too, but it was expressed at that time. Of course this is part of his self. Everything seems to have not changed, but such small probability events will continue to happen, forcing people to introspect, feedback to the overall situation, and ultimately cause changes. It's like the vaccinations given to us by "Black Mirror", which arouses our thinking and predicts part of the risks in advance. This is the greatness of "Black Mirror".
