Buddy had the nightmarish idea a while back with all the new generative ai stuff for video chat services injecting ads using the faces/voices of the participants in lieu of payment. Just, regularly-schedule ad breaks in your call where “your friend” suddenly starts talking about how excited they are about Raid: Shadow Legends
Lol, I want to believe it was someone who wanted to slow the spread of this concept in the world, lashing out against it the only way they could.
That said I’ve def bookmarked that episode for watching. I lost track of Black MIrror, it’s a bit tough in that it’s so grim that each episode doesn’t really leave you wanting to watch the next one in my experience. But it’s had some bangers.
After having watched it (it was good, watched it with the buddy who had the idea and without telling him why we were watching it, he had a laugh the first time it happened), if you found it a real struggle, definitely don’t read this article about a real company that made a brain implant for epileptics and went under of which the episode heavily reminded me.

That one is particularly rage inducing if it’s the one I’m thinking of (I think ep 1 of the new season?).
Some of the others in the new season aren’t so depressing or rage inducing, though.

Jesus. Delet this.
Too late, Black Mirror already has an episode about this exact idea (starring Rashida Jones).
