Meet the Cast

Marshall

Marshall

The Kid

A 7-year-old San Francisco rich kid who books Waymos to roam the city and reads how feeds, ads, and cameras wrap up the grown-ups' minds. Sharp, unbothered, narrating the surveillance state from a booster seat.

"The bigs are buffering."

Bentham

Bentham

The Owl

A maybe-sentient AI owl-contraption Marshall's Dad built: a glowing clockwork familiar to Marshall, just a discarded smart-home gadget to everyone else. Sees everything.

"By proceeding, you agree to be seen."

The View From the Booster Seat

Waymos that never stop watching. Smart speakers that listen too well. A Dad who's only ever a voice on a phone.
Follow Marshall and Bentham as they decode the grown-up panopticon — one click-through agreement at a time.
