Black Mirror creator offers a new premonition of humanity's self-wrought tech apocalypse, and it's Balatro on phones: 'It's possibly the most addictive thing ever created'
Black Mirror has proven itself unnervingly prescient. While watching the first few seasons of Netflix's dystopian anthology, I thought it clutched the "what if phones but too much" pearls a little too tightly. But given that I've since come to think of my phone as a wretched obelisk that radiates psychic harm, I'm now more inclined to listen when series creator Charlie Brooker says there's an impending threat to humanity and it's Balatro on phones.
