Photography and videography are a kind of technology. It’s ubiquitous now, but still quite new.
The concept of recording every detail of your life in photorealistic quality (as opposed to, say, writing it down) is relatively new too. I thought this season did a good job of exploring the effect that sort of technology has on us. Do things get unearthed that should have stayed secret? When is searching for the truth at the expense of someone’s privacy justified? How would the Loch and Mazey Day stories differ if they were set in the 1500s?
