Esta semana, olhamos para veículos icónicos do futurismo no cinema de Ficção Científica. Observamos a resposta física a ciberataques, orientações de privacidade na Google e os princípios da Internet. Recordamos Wally Wood e Junji Ito, enquanto falamos de comics e séries de televisão entre o horror e o fantástico. Isto, e muito mais, para descobrir no Capturas na Rede desta semana.
