 A virtual bot strolls through the city and complains about it. As it wanders, it pulls negative reviews from Google Maps, stopping only to recite the angriest things people have said.

[Ilja](https://www.ilja.cc/wouldnotrecommend/) is an artist and creative technologist investigating how digital infrastructures shape society. He works with software, bots, and automated systems, interested in disrupting systems and using technologies, tools, and datasets in ways they were not originally intended to be used.
