Nosedive

- connections I can make about the episode and General unskilled is both using the number system on people and it both affecting the main character in the long run.

- The episode Nosedive  is a direct correlation of the world today and the connections we have towards our phones, Rather than people we seek validation from one another through numbers. we are hidden by this falls reality / persona not who we really are but the perfect life we want others to see online.Most of the black mirror episodes go over the idea of social media and the use of technology  I believe as time progresses we incorporate more ways to let it in our life, And technology will be used as a way to make life easier for us but can be seen as a way to stay connection it will disconnect us from genuine connection.

- I interpreted the ending as a way the main character is being set free. In the Last scene the main character is placed into a jail with no cell phone to check her score , through out the story you see her points and the events that lead to her losing them. You can see how the environment and people change around her all based on the points which don't value her as a person or herself but that is shown by numbers.

  1. I love that final scene where she raises an empty hand and tries to down-rate her cell neighbor.
