Frankenstein monster
Stitched-together abomination
A Frankenstein monster is a creation that turns against or destroys its creator.
The term comes from Mary Shelley's novel, where Dr.
Frankenstein assembles a creature from corpses and brings it to life, only to be destroyed by it.
The creature itself is often mistakenly called Frankenstein: Social media has become a Frankenstein monster for the companies that built it.
