THE WORST IS YET TO COME. Black Mirror posters terrifying London commuters 🤯🇬🇧

One reads: 'Brain implants let parents monitor teens', while another warns: 'Toy companies using dolls to eavesdrop on your children', and 'Tech startup turning dead loved ones into chatbots', or even worse: 'Museum attraction lets visitors torture prisoners'.

I am back in London and it is my first day of work this year. I am doing some freelance video editing in Old Street, and there are a lot of spooky posters out here.

I could see how commuters were freaking out over those messages, including myself until I registered it could only be Black Mirror. So far I've only seen these posters in Old Street, and it makes sense because Old Street is the perfect place to test daring ideas. It is the third largest technology start-up cluster in the world after San Francisco and New York City. Consequently, it is filled with forward-thinkers and early adopters. Hide your children, they are going to get nightmares here!

Who else watched Black Mirror season 4 all in one go? 😅

I am not going to spoil anything if you haven't seen it yet. But you should probably stop what you are doing and watch it.

My sister @jellenmark and I devoured all 6 episodes as soon as it was made available on Netflix December 29. Our dad woke up in the middle of the night, to tell us it wasn’t healthy to watch TV until 4 am in the morning.. but it was too late. Our eyes were glued like hungry zombies for the telly; actually not all the time, sometimes we'd run out of the room to avoid the gruesome scenes - It was that creepy!

He could have joined our movie marathon at any time though, each episode follows its own storyline, different characters and a different dark reality. But they are all about the way we live now, how dangerous technology can be, and if we don’t watch out things can turn out really badly.

All these posters got me thinking.. What could go wrong with Steemit?

Currently over 30.000 people are registering on to Steemit, daily! Kudos to @penguinpablo for the stats! Steemit is this exciting social media platform that is growing so fast. We are getting paid for content creation and curation. Pinch me? What is going to happen next? Whats going to happen to our main social media outlets Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, et co? How far will you go for Steem?

I am interested in hearing your predictions and thoughts on this.

Also do you know of any other good technology thrillers to watch this night? Now that we've finished watching all of Black Mirror? 😉

Sort:  

Very cool shots, my spouse and I just binged and finished the new season in a shameful four nights. I enjoyed the last episode a lot, probably because it's the longest and I am always wanting more, but I'm still left wanting more of the excellence that was the first two seasons.

The last episode of the museum was so creepy, right? 😱

It was great, definitely my favorite from the season. I think I liked all the interweaving and multiple stories in one episode.

I've not even watched black mirror, but seems like its hella intresting.
I'm gonna go watch it.

Yes! Do it now! 😍

Yes ma'am!💝

Great pics!
And Black Mirror was i'ight

Thank you! ✨
