Nearly 40 years ago, Ray Bradbury gave us a prophetic look into the future of everyday life where we have no privacy, no solitude and no peace thanks to technology and those who use it to control every aspect of our lives. This short story/video holds up after decades because it became true in many ways. My Poalrs will be able to read more into this story because you know who is behind this modern world and how they have come about implementing it.

I don't know if this story is predictive programming or simply the work of a prophetic author, but either way it did give us a glimpse into what seemed like a preposterous and overblown future that actually came true and in ways far more invasive than the story tells. I think you will enjoy this story and see how bad things have gotten and who made that happen. Maybe we will start a revolution with chocolate milkshakes ourselves.

Great episode and hard to watch because it hits home so well. All these technologies are designed to put you on 24-hour call to others whims, no matter how trivial. You just have to reverse it and switch devices to only check when you ask them to, and disable notification for some senders.
