Black Mirror is real.
Justin Caffier, a writer for Vice, posted a photo on Twitter Monday of the “new security-guarded mural in LA that only allows influencers and verifieds to take pics in front of it.”

The mural has a sign next to it with an explanation:
“PRIVATE MURAL
FOR VERIFIED INFLUENCERS AND PEOPLE WITH OVER 20,000 FOLLOWERS ONLY
WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.
SEE SECURITY STAFF FOR PROOF AND ACCESS”
So, yeah…

Anyway, if you plan on checking it out (and you or verified or have 20k followers), here’s more info on it:
Lotta mural question DMs so lemme just share what I know here:
– address is 7753 Melrose Ave.
– it’s up from now until 6/27 (tho I highly doubt it will remain unvandalized for that long)
– it’s 20K followers OR a verified check to enter
– your reggo friends gotta wait outside— justin caffier (@JustinCaffier) June 25, 2018
Something called “Like and Subscribe” is taking credit for the mural…
Today we are so excited to debut the beautiful mural we curated in the heart of the LA art scene. Come down and check it out. Unfortunately the mural is currently for verified influencers and people with over 20k followers only. However it may be public soon. Stay tuned! pic.twitter.com/CRIzqaAhX8

Many are speculating it may be some sort of prank, similar to “Nathan For You,” but so far all we know is something is coming July 9.
