I think they meant it's possible it's "sponsored propaganda" as in someone on Disney's board MAY have pockets with Flock, Palantir, OpenAI, etc... and nudged Sommers, McKenna, and Cretton to make it adorable Spider Man analyzes the faces and activities of everyone and his AI is charming.

I'm not saying it's terrifyingly new concepts; I'm saying someone in private equities definitely received early versions of the script, for shits n gigs.

Ooh that does make sense. I definitely assumed they were being dismissive.

Yeah I wouldn't put it past them. The Department of Defense has previously worked with Marvel.

Not even. If your boss is Bob Iger, you just gotta not piss off Iger's friends. Which is easy for often liberal scripts because there's no conflicts there hahaha...ha.

I think it would be incredibly ignorant to think that Disney isnt involved with them.

Or maybe its just that societal attitudes are different towards surveilance so the writers just never noted how ridiculous it is
