Mr Robot Rewind – Daily Security Byte EP.118

July 25, 2015 By Corey Nachreiner

Mr Robot keeps getting better. This is the first show that I’ve seen that gets hacking and technology consistently right; down to the tools they show in screen shots. I like it so much that I have partnered with GeekWire to do an article series analyzing each episode. Watch Friday’s video to learn more about it, and have a great weekend.

Show Note: There will not be a video on Monday or Tuesday.

(Episode Runtime: 1:33)

      Sorry you don’t like the show. It is certainly dark. I still love it. ^_^

    I guess the IP addresses with 358 in them fall into “consistently right” category, too 🙂

      No… that’s more an expected situation. I saw many geeks like me get mad online about the wrong 4th octet in the IP address, and I did pause and notice it in the first or second ep (to my wife’s ire). However, it’s like phone numbers… There are no phone numbers that start with 555-xxxx, but hollywood has to use they so folks don’t call random ppl… Same with IP addresses… it would be bad form to use a real one if you don’t own it. I don’t think that qualifies as a mistake, since it was done on purpose….

      Now what might be fun is if the show owners snuck a real IP address in the show that they own… It could be a AR game for ppl that visit it, and start some mystery they have to solve.
