That's about as far as the similarities go, though. I'd recommend giving it a watch!Įdit: The show is not in any way related to the book called Feed by Mathew Tobin Anderson, although the tech in the show is similar in concept to the tech from the similarly titled book. It's an Amazon Original and it seems to have had a decent budget. The tech gets hacked, and all sorts of crazy shit happens. One ultra rich family controls it, but society has become dependent on it to the point that global infrastructure would collapse without it, or without an integrated replacement. It's about a future where everyone basically has their smartphones implanted in their brains via neural mesh, and it's called the Feed. Debuting two years before Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook in his dorm. It's a bit slow at first, but it has a great performance by David Thewlis as well as Michelle Fairley (who played Cat on Game of Thrones) and most of the cast is great (although one character does a pretty atrocious American accent). Anderson published the young adult novel Feed in 2002, there were no social media feeds to scroll in real life. I haven't seen anything on here about it and Amazon hasn't really promoted it at all either, I'm surprised because it's actually pretty decent.
