- The personalized pop-up ads that they thought were amusing or at worst slightly annoying. Raffi’s was an invitation to a drug den. The level of insidiousness for this neutral zone planet to have that level of info on a Earth-bound burnout is astounding.
WORSE. Because everyone is used to it, they find it amusing or just annoying.
2, Speaking of pop up ads. The modern touches on the show like pop up ads, and Raffi monitoring ‘networks’ to discover that Picard is ‘blowing up’ ‘everyone is talking about him’.
- Our heroes get to Freecloud and the Warrior Nun Planet so quickly because they are in the Neutral Zone which is a hop skip and a jump from Earth. We find out that the Neutral Zone ‘has collapsed’. How degraded has Starfleet and the Romulans become that a gangster with an antique Romulan Warbird can run riot over the sector? I do like the reverse power creep though. There’s a very Fallout in Space feel to the notion that a guy with a Warbird can make peoples lives hell.
