Anyone else watching this new show (on USA network)?
I was amazed at the technical accuracy of the first 15 minutes of the first episode but things have gone a bit down hill (technically speaking) since then.
I do like that they use terms and acronyms without feeling the need to explain
them (e.g. "AFK" and "IRC"), but the concept that an employee at a cyber-security firm would need a "root kit" explained to them is an absurdity.
The show is still very entertaining and I suspect it will do very well.
