I mean, based on what's going on nowadays, it does kinda feel like fiction.

Reminds me of a sci-fi short story I read once, where someone invented a machine which could look into the past and show viewers actual historical events. It turned dark when the government twigged that "the past" starts one instant ago, and used the machine to snoop on people in near-real time.
