I agree, and also think it’s odd that they would expect a balanced (“Prometheus style”) view of tech, given that this critique is the basic premise of the show.

That said, I agree with the main thesis of the article: this is pessimism porn (great and accurate term), and that is bad. We can have a good critique of everything that’s happening without turning it into entertainment and just bathing in misery. Personally, I saw one episode, thought everything in it was already happening here and now, and determined that I can have my eyes open about this stuff without regularly injecting an artistic representation of it in my brain.
