According to the latest episode, beyond the huge experiment in AI/ultra-expensive theme park that it is, it's real purpose involves harvesting Data (and even DNA) from the guests, just like Facebook. This was seriously their goal all along. I'm not sure how to react to that. I don't know what's worse, that this is becoming a ubiquitous plot in speculative fiction (to the point where the ADIs in "Hated in the Nation" were only sanctioned if they could be used to spy on ordinary Britons, because they prioritised the surveillance state over the potential extinction of the fucking human race) or the fact that this is becoming ubiquitous in fact.

Going to start on the fourth season of Black Mirror.

Black Mirror does not disappoint. With the first episode of season four, it premiered with a bang. I just know I am going to enjoy the rest of the season. Maybe I'll return to Dark afterwards. Maybe.

Episode almost done, and I'm still not sure why the third one of Black Mirror is called "Crocodile".
Had to look it up; it's because crocodiles have great memories. There were no crocodiles in the episode, though.

Season four of Black Mirror complete. Only six episodes, but all well executed.
My favorites: Hang the DJ Black Museum The last episode, Black Museum, was especially well named and well done. Definitely the best choice for the last episode. I was searching online, seems there will be a fifth season. I eagerly await it.

Doctor Who is not on Netflix. What kind of nonsense is that?
OMG, looks like I'm going to have to watch Altered Carbon: ![[Image: joel-kinnaman-shirtless-altered-carbon-netflix.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=images.dailyhive.com%2F20180209120558%2Fjoel-kinnaman-shirtless-altered-carbon-netflix.jpg)
