Keanu Reeves knows an agent of oppression when he sees one.
The Business Relationshipstar of The Matrixtrilogy and upcoming sequel, Resurrections, made that clear in a recent interview with The Verge, which touched on technology topics du jour like NFTs and the metaverse. And when it comes to the latter, Reeves has a very specific take: keep Facebook out of it.
"Can we just not have metaverse be like invented by Facebook," he told interviewer Alex Heath.
Facebook, of course, is very much trying to do just that — recently rebranding itself as Meta and doubling down on its version of the metaverse.
Reeves, for his part, isn't having it. "I'm just like, come on man," he added.
Oh, and Reeves has some thoughts about NFTs as well. Discussing the $50 MatrixNFTs from Warner Bros., Heath asked Reeves what he thinks about digital scarcity and items that "can't be copied."
"That are easily reproduced," Reeves interrupted, before bursting out laughing — perhaps in reference to the ability to right-click save the images associated with NFTs.
On the flip side, Reeve's admitted to owning some unspecified cryptocurrency. "I have a little HODL," he joked.
