Literally black mirror lol
I think it's Sony that has a patent on a TV that uses a camera and microphone so they can play ads that only stop when you stand up, raise your arms and shout "McDonalds!", for example. Not in Black Mirror, in real life.
They do, but we have to remember that big companies like that file patents all the time for concepts they never actually use. Apple is famous for it.
It's true, it's even possible they're sitting on it so nobody else can do it. But at the same time I feel like if they felt they could get away with it they'd do it. It's closer to reality than we'd like to think.
... yet.
I mean you could say that about any of these patents too: https://gizmodo.com/apple-patents-iphone-mac-watch-windowless-car-vr-socks-1848951448
But the chances that any of them will be implemented are very slim.
I'm not familiar with black mirror. Is this literally in the literal sense of the word by definition or literally in the oxymoronic figurative sense?
As in that's somewhat happening in an episode of the series where ads are being forced onto the main character, and it paused when the MC close his eye because he didn't want to watch it.
Literally literal
1984 as well, at least in some aspects
