Television Science Fiction Shows ByMichael BoyleApril 11, 2025 11:00 am EST Netflix Spoilers below for the "Black Mirror" episode "Bte Noire."After the fan backlash to "Black Mirror" season 6's brief foray into fantasy territory, it seems at first glance like season 7 has course corrected: every episode of the new season is based around technology in some way, with no werewolves or demons in sight. However, the premise of the second episode of the season,"Bte Noire," is science fiction by technicality alone.

During that time it looks like he had two good ideas: One was for new technology related to the "design for test" (DFT) sector of the chipset industry. The second was to secretly sell that technology back to his own employer.At least, that's the basis of a Justice Department action against Arabi that this week produced a federal jury conviction."As vice president of research and development, Mr. Arabi was entrusted with protecting Qualcomm's intellectual property rights," said IRS Special Agent in Charge Tyler Hatcher, in a release from the Justice Department.
