Burning Times

Much like The Circle this is deliberately over exaggerated. I think part of the issue I found with it was that I didn't find the satire very funny and the whole thing seemed rather unworkable in real life. This could have done with some editing too, a great chunk in the middle completely abandoned the plot for ever more ludicrous schemes dreamt up by the protagonist and lapped up by her colleagues. It's undeniably clever, but I thought it lacked substance; it's just Dave repeatedly hitting you over the head with his ‘tech bad' hammer. Plus I absolutely hated the nod and a wink references to current events and even the film version of The Circle.
