Abstract

This article seeks to analyze the animation Wall-E (2008), with current eyes, drawing attention to the growing human dependence on technology. The intent is not to forget the benefits brought by globalization and speed resulting from the Internet, but rather to question them in the face of its impact on the lives of human beings and their social and legal organization. To this end, it will allude to illnesses and symptoms resulting from the ever-increasing rapprochement between the material, factual world, and the virtual space, seeking a defense mechanism between the use of technological means, our dependence on it and the risks that it brings to our health. Aiming to achieve this purpose, the article will address the nuances brought by the Marco Civil da Internet and its role in the scope of protection and care for human health.
