1) The general premise of the video is that in today's world, people have become absorbed in technology and the media. People have become materialistic and no longer care about other people or the world around them.
2) I think the video is effective in conveying it's intended message. It tries to show how people have changed through the use of technology, no longer caring about others. The video shows all of the people that are hurt or affected by this.
3) I think that this is more an examination of our current social situation than a cautionary story. I think this because all of the events shown in this video already happen today. It could be cautionary, but more of a wake up call to people who behave like this attempting to get them to recognize that their actions are destructive.
