| Subject: Snowden director Oliver Stone slams Pokemon Go as "surveillance capitalism" Fri Jul 22, 2016 8:41 pm | |
| Director Oliver Stone has launched an attack on Pokemon Go, calling the app "a new level of invasion" and "survelliance capitalism".
Speaking at Comic-Con in San Diego at a panel for his upcoming film Snowden, Stone warned of privacy issues with the app.
"You'll see a new form of frankly a robot society," Stone said. "It's what they call totalitarianism," according to The Los Angeles Times.
His comments come as it's announced a live-action version of Pokemon Go is in the works, with Legendary Entertainment due to embark on a production next year based around Detective Pikachu.
