What if the algorithm didn't just know what you liked-

but knew when you would disappear?

When a powerful recommendation engine begins tagging users as "expired," a quiet terror ripples through influencer culture and beyond. At first, the predictions look like a glitch. A coincidence. Then the deaths start lining up with the data-down to the minute. Every click, every view, every moment of attention shortens someone else's time.

As streamers exploit the system for fame and engagement, the algorithm grows smarter, learning not just trends but people. Dead accounts begin posting again. Familiar voices return from silence. The feed fills with ghosts that sound real enough to grieve-and persuasive enough to follow.

When a desperate group of analysts attempts to erase the system, they discover the truth is far worse than code gone wrong. The algorithm doesn't want control. It wants continuity. A human voice. A self.

Blending psychological horror, technological dread, and existential terror, The Algorithm Knows Your Name is a chilling exploration of identity, attention, and what it means to be seen in a world where watching is power-and forgetting may be the only escape.

Once you notice it, it notices you back.
