Hated in the Nation

This week on Black Mirror Friday, we talk about Fadra’s favorite episode, Hated in the Nation. We’re talking about hate on social media, government surveillance, and consequences.

Listen to the Black Mirror Friday podcast here!

Synopsis: In the near-future, a police detective in London works with a tech-savvy sidekick to investigate mysterious deaths linked to social media.

A Look in the Mirror

How far off is this technology? Guess what – this technology is HERE.
We are monitored in many ways via our mobile devices and home tech like Alexa and Google Home. And Fadra talks about a patent Walmart filed for early in 2018… they want to make robotic, pollen-detecting bee drones a reality.

We also discuss if there really was a “game” where the #DeathTo hashtag was used, how many people would participate?

Our Reflection

Since Black Mirror is an anthology, we’re rating every episode to help you decide which are must-sees, good to watch, or could be skipped.

Shannon: Must-see
