The project critically explores how pandemics and crisis in general, trigger waves of misinformation, fear, and conspiracy theories amplified by media. These narratives often arise from a human need for control during uncertainty. Based on this, we developed a speculative design project around a fictional hacktivist collective called [ANTI_STREAMING_ARMY], which dis covered the pandemic manipulation. Streaming plat forms organized a meticulus plan to make more profit through platforms’ subscribers. The pandemic served as a marketing strategy to make us stay at home watching.
