Secrets cause crime? Is it a lie?

In fact, there are many concepts that can be discussed in depth, but the film has been taken lightly and ignored.

I think the problem is that the whole setting is too ridiculous. 1. Of course people can give up their privacy and put everything under the sun in exchange for convenience, power, interest, star-like vanity... etc. But when a person is alive, she will interact with those around her. When she exposes herself, she drags countless people in her life into the water and is forced to expose it. I once thought that when she said that she wanted to broadcast live all day, no one would like to talk to her or swim with her anymore, but it didn’t happen. Everyone continued to play with her happily. This is too unreasonable. 2. State of mind. The transition from thinking is too abrupt, how come you suddenly become a person after almost drowning? It’s hard to understand... 3. The circle tried its best to incorporate all the data into the system, but no one opposed it, and even a little thought it was inappropriate. The world was constructed too falsely...

There is a very interesting concept in it. The secret is to lie and allow evil to happen. When there is no supervision, it will be safe to do evil. If there are no secrets, evil will cease to exist. Is such a beautiful utopian world really possible? Or should it be said that such a transparent world is really needed?

    It's a mediocre work, the screenwriter is not good, and the lines are almost at the level of domestic TV dramas. It's too literal and disappointing. It is a little interesting: Bailey interviewed Mae at the press conference, and the two pieced together Guang Zhengwei who plundered all privacy. This scenario can indeed be brought into reality.

    The subject matter is interesting. It’s hard to say whether the press conferences are satirizing Jobs and Apple. The privacy probe may be alluding to Microsoft, but the way of expression is very mediocre and lacks the “sense of technology” that it should have. The so-called sharing privacy seems to be no different from doing live broadcasts. , can not stimulate the curiosity of the audience at all, all the fear caused by the pervasive peeping needs to be filled by the audience's own brain, the effect of the screen is not shocking enough, how can it arouse deep thinking
