When Your Phone Becomes Your Prison
What if every moment of your life was recorded and available for instant replay? What if your social worth could be calculated by an algorithm? What if falling in love meant uploading your consciousness to a server? These aren't distant sci-fi fantasies-they're uncomfortably close extrapolations of technologies we already use daily. Black Mirror, Charlie Brooker's dystopian anthology series, holds up a dark reflection of our relationship with technology, forcing us to confront an unsettling truth: the real horror isn't the technology itself, but what it reveals about human nature. Each standalone episode functions as a philosophical thought experiment, grounding abstract ethical dilemmas in scenarios that feel disturbingly inevitable, making us question not just where innovation is taking us, but what our choices today say about who we've already become.
