OcelotWhat is a topic you know a lot about that the media often gets terribly wrong?
IT Security
KoboldCoterieThis is a huge one in movies and TV shows especially, but part of the problem is that IT security, or counter-security, is not a great spectator event. It’s very dry, does not involve a lot of flashing lights or even really anything on screen except in many cases a command prompt or progress bar, and is in most cases not a quick process.
That said, Mr. Robot, while not perfect, did a really good job of being a more realistic portrayal.
I never understood why it was called Mr. Robot but he was a human?
olicvbIt’s explained later in the story
spoilerIt`s his dad’s computer store’ name. Or the one Elliot wants to see it as (in case of classic unreliable narrator moment).
Did you watch the show?
Mr Robot was his dad’s electric store.
