Or that it wasn't an accurate prediction. I thought they were over-the-top with the moving ad screens everywhere. All over the buildings, constantly running ads. I might have it confused with another movie? More coffee.
Either way, now it feels closer to the truth.

It would be worse being across from it. It would be flashing through the window all the time. My neighbor got a billboard on his property which lit up my whole 2 acre property at night . Laws are all in Billboard companies favor, Zoning did not apply. Wisconsin

Helps trump fuck up our country... gets thousands of people fired... opens up a fucking diner in L.A. Parking lot is only for Tesla swasticars. Did he employ those south African refugees? And selling Tesla merch? These billionaires sure know how to bilk people. $$$.

Waste. Fraud. Abuse.

I hope it fails.
