Hey guys what is up welcome back to my blog I’m so thankful that you guys took the time out of your day to read my blog post. Hope you all are safe from the COVID-19. I was watching Control Z on Netflix, (yes I do have an account I’m not that cheap) and thought it seemed very unrealistic but the ending just left me wondering.
So if any of you are not familiar with the story. It follows the story of a school with a bunch of really fucked up students with secrets that are better left untouched. Meet Sofia a student with obvious mental health issues who also notices things that others don’t such as hair stuck on someone’s shirt showing they got a haircut or watching everyone and figuring out their daily routines to the dot. Needless to say she is the main character and she will be the one who’s story we’re going to be looking at and yes don’t worry we’re going to get a good backstory on her and all the other characters. So at first glance it seems like a normal high school, Bullying is prevalent, the rich kids are stuck up jerks and everyone has secrets. A new kid Javier comes in son of a football star Javier or Javi as the others call him gets picked on by the bullies at the school and makes quick friends with Sofia and we know that there’s a romance brewing in there somewhere. Now in an assembly a video is played revealing a secret of one of the students. Another boy Raul comes to Sofia telling her that he has been receiving threats too. It’s obvious that Raul likes Sofia but Sofia doesn’t reciprocate his feelings and they have a history that is revealed later. So Sofia like a good main character sets off on a hunt to catch the hacker as he starts revealing more and more secrets. It’s a classic race against time type of story.
Now that’s all I can share without giving out any major spoilers about that show and it’s story because some of you may want to watch it. Now let’s dive into the real question this show puts forward. Is a world without secrets really ideal or is it better to leave secrets as they are, hidden. If you watch the show you’ll find that the kids have done some messed up things and though everyone puts on a front and acts like there isn’t anything happening some struggle with keeping their secrets while others manage to hide it well. Everything essential descend into chaos when everyone starts receiving the texts that someone knows their secret. We hide behind a mask everywhere in real life, in social media but somewhere along those lines we commit mistakes or we do something wrong intentionally or we hide our true selves and we’re afraid of what would happen if our secrets got out and everyone finds out our true selves but we forget that the truth will come out one day, some way or another. I think that keeping secrets is just signing a warrant that says that you want to suffer a big consequence in the long term rather than have a small consequence in the short term. See if the people that did the mistakes just put out what they did rather than keep them a secret the hacker wouldn’t have been able to use it against them. This is what actually happens the only way that you can truly gain respect is not by being a brat or having a lot of money and throwing it around. You earn respect by being truthful and when you don’t have secrets you know that no one can take you down or taint your reputation. Once a reputation gets tainted then it’s really hard to make it back. Don’t get me wrong here if you want to keep your secrets keep them I’m putting out my thoughts and opinions here which you can reflect on and implement it. Just remember if you fall in trouble because you kept secrets then don’t cry about it because in this world of internet nothing is hidden. Dig deep enough and nothing is hidden. Also I really really recommend watching Control Z mostly because you can see what really can happen if you keep secrets just don’t use it as an example to not use the internet if anything keep your data safer and don’t connect to public Wi-Fi without protection and don’t think that your data is safe when you use the internet your data is somewhere on there. Stay safe.
So that is it for this post guys hope you got some value from this. Thank you guys for reading to the end hit me up on Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn with your thoughts and if you have any ideas which I should write about. Stay safe from the COVID-19. Thank you again and I’ll see you all next week.
