We all have online friends who like to spoil what happened in the latest episode of your favorite show (and we won’t be able to get away from them when Game of Thrones comes back). It looks like Google wants to help us out with that. A new patent from Google hopes to keep you oblivious about plot twists in your favorite shows, books, and movies until you get to see or read it yourself.
The system will be designed to track your progress on a particular show, movie, or book and then block or rather blur posts from your friends who are ahead of you. We’re not sure how Google will be working with social networks for this one. But this is one idea we’d love implemented. Because I’m going to lose it the next time someone tries to spoil GoT for me.
