. Mae played by Emma successfully entered an Internet giant company called "Circle" with the help of his friend Annie. Accidentally fell into the water in the process of rowing a rubber dinghy. Fortunately, the company's so-called tracking system was rescued. The company's leaders aimed at this opportunity to let Mae wear a small camera to make his complete life in public view, without privacy, every day. Thousands of netizens saw Mae's daily routine on the other side of the camera. Whether she got up early to brush her teeth or went to bed, she had to show her "secret" appearance to the audience. reality. And only a short 3 minutes of going to the bathroom in a day is your own private space.
The starting point of the film is to discuss social privacy, which itself is an entry point worthy of in-depth thinking, and the content presented in the film is only a point to the point, and does not tell us the relationship behind this relationship through a thorough analysis. The hasty ending is a bit confusing.
There is a subtle and self-evident relationship between social interaction and privacy. The convenience brought by social networks makes people no longer able to completely hide themselves. The convenience brought by technological development makes it easier for people to be exposed to any end of the world.
During the exchange and study process in Taiwan in the second half of last year, Taiwan used social software such as LINE, FB, IG, etc. that were banned in mainland China. At first, I found it troublesome and too lazy to download. Later, for the convenience of communication, I finally changed my ID and downloaded FB. The biggest feeling I felt after FB was that there was no privacy. On your social page, you can easily see that A and B have become friends, and you can easily see B's message to A. I always feel that their FB is more like Weibo in our eyes. You can see the friends that A follows and likes B, but the permission set by Weibo is that if you didn't take the initiative, you could have avoided seeing it. Yes, and the permission of FB is completely public. If you are not active, you can easily see the interaction between A and B.
I don't like to fully disclose my state, as if others can spy on you casually, where have you been today, what have you done today, these are originally choices made by one's own free will. The opinions of others are enough to be judged by value standards. Circle's slogan "Secrets are lies" and "Sharing is caring". I don't completely deny this point, at least I agree with the second sentence, of course, looking at it from a different angle, not entirely on the basis of the previous sentence, that kind of sharing is not practically necessary and not very useful.
We were taught from childhood that we need to learn to share, Kong Rong let the story of pear fascinated from childhood, it is what you share, not just based on sharing your secrets. In fact, no one really cares about your secrets. It's just that with the development of the social network environment, people's hearts are getting more and more impetuous, and people are trying to satisfy their inner emptiness by looking into other people's lives with a curious heart.
The turning point in the film happened when Mae accidentally took pictures of her parents in Sex, which made her parents refuse to show her life to the audience without reservation. This made us think deeply about whether you are concerned about the people around you when sharing your secrets. Feelings, whether the results lead our loved ones into the abyss. On the stage of the speech, the audience urged Mae to use this circle to find a friend who lost contact with Mae but was eventually forced to die in a car accident. The film does not extend its theme but stops abruptly. The central concept conveyed by the film is still vague, and it is unclear whether it promotes information sharing on the positive side or exemplifies the importance of privacy protection on the negative side.
"Privacy is a steal". The ultimate conclusion is, "Knowing things is good, knowing everything is better."
(Actually I disagree)
