Serial Experiments Lain. Came out before smartphones and yet predicted a lot of modern technology. It's a fantastic look at how tech can shape our reality and mental health.

Big Agree, I watched Lain around the same time as I was reading a lot and the books I read at the time were similarly prophetic (Nueromancer, Snow Crash, The Diamond Age, Permutation City) all right around the time of peak "The Matrix" hype..
