i know that matt garvey did notes for this last year in november, but,
since i haven't seen this episode yet, i'll give my thoughts about it
before the super bowl episode.

starting off, i liked a couple of the act one jokes. a few of the car-go
jokes were pretty good, including the whimsy of it's offices reminding
me of stories of the googleplex. as a guy who personally distrusts
google to hell and back for their recent atrocities, these jokes hit
home in a way. i also like how homer isn't as much as a jerkass as he
was in the past and has *mainly* gone back to his old self. it's a
relaxing change of pace, to be honest.

the a-story is that homer joins generic tech startup #83 (car-go), and
actually excells on his job! turns out, however, that the company's
tracking their data and is using it to advertise to them (sounds
familiar?), so homer sues them for privacy invasion. mr burns is also in
the episode, but doesn't really come into the story until act three,
where homer, smithers, and burns stops the cars, ruining the company. a
basic 'homer's new job' story, but a mildly fun one and one that is
deeply rooted in the current tech environment, where every piece of
tech's eavesdropping on the consumer, like privacy doesn't exist anymore.

it's nothing as well crafted as the golden era, but it's a cool little
bit of satire about the infidelity of tech nowadays.
