When computer hardware is obviously Apple but they remove the branding. Or when the UI on what a screen is hilariously unlike any real UI ever shipped with a product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can watch ads to earn credits for movies. And they&#8217;ll track your eyes to make sure you&#8217;re watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Using a feature called \u201cpre-show,\u201d MoviePass customers will get credits in exchange for watching ads on their phones. To make sure they\u2019re actually watching, the app will track users\u2019 eyeballs, Spikes said. &nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>But don&#8217;t worry about that data. They wouldn&#8217;t possibly ever use it for anything to make money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cYour phone, your device uses your own facial detection,\u201d Spikes added. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t go to the cloud, nobody goes through anything other than you and your information in yours. And you opt in to do it on your own.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;And you opt in to do it on your own.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the moment you do, we&#8217;ll sell it to the highest bidder, the lowest bidder and every bidder in between. It&#8217;s nice to see MoviePass come back in its final form, as the worst version of itself. I&#8217;m shocked the credits you earn aren&#8217;t cryptocurrency on a blockchain somewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Moviepass first hinted at its plans for &#8230; testing a \u201cnew proposed business model with a sample group of 1,000 customers&#8230; The filings did not provide details of the new business model&#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s absolutely going to be a crypto currency plan with NFTs of your favorite movie stars, posters, trinkets from the films.
