Which leads one to contemplate this episode of Black Mirror from CH 4 in the UK:
/The Entire History of You/
Set in an alternative reality where most people have a 'grain' implanted behind their ear which records everything they do, see or hear. This allows memories to be played back either in front of
the person's eyes or on a screen, a process known as a 're-do'.

The entire series offers much food for thought.
