    Well that was the last episode of the 7th season of Black Mirror. It was called “Common People”

    Not clothing but worse.

      I remember that episode. Not exactly what I’m talking about, and I think it’s different enough that it’s worthwhile exploring in a separate episode. Like Fifteen Million Merits.

      But you get the idea

        15 Million Merits is about being unable to turn away from the advertisements, the cyclist can’t even close their eyes too long except during sleep.

        The advertising in Common people is literally taking over a person’s body to advertise to the people around them without their knowledge just cutting off their consciousness for a broadcast of a targeted ad.
