I will try not to spoil anything, but to give a quick high level introduction of the show
I won't share any more, to help avoid spoilers
I see, you feel like me now lol
Which season are you now? So I can at least not spoiler one person on SN when I start sharing more Mr. Robot stuff that inspired me? Nothing planned currently though. But I had a strong Mr. Robot phase a few weeks ago where I almost rewatched the show and probably scrapped some ideas for posts which I no longer remember.
This was also one of the posts where I was disappointed to see the forward to me haha, especially because it was posted in ~security. How should I boost my territory if I can't boost the good posts in it? But no worries, I try to appreciate the forward :)
I didn't notice it early on in the show (maybe I missed it, maybe it wasn't there?), but the second half of the show highlights the characters using Signal to communicate with each other. Honestly, it almost feels like product placement to me.
Mhh, good point about the product placement. I think this might indeed be the case; at least I wouldn't be surprised since the Signal Foundation does a lot of PR work which includes interviews with politicians where Meredith Whittaker, the president of the Signal Foundation, defends E2EE and (online) privacy. And I think this PR work is important. Maybe Signal is even as honorable in their efforts like the EFF.

I am about 2-3 episodes away from finishing the entire series, so I'm almost done! Please share away :)

Haha! I actually thought about that after I posted, thinking that you couldn't zap the post. At least, not from @ek, but maybe as @anon. For my next Mr. Robot post, I'll still drop it in ~security, but I won't forward any sats to you, so you can boost your own territory lol

šŸ‘€ let me know what you think about the ending and especially how you feel in the @saloon. Did you watch the whole series in 4 weeks? Took me a lot longer, I even stopped for some reason until I started watching it from the start again with my ex-girlfriend and she loved it and was deeply moved by the story. And I thought I was deeply moved! lol

Oh, right, the @anon tricks. No worries, you can still forward to me but I'll never forget how I felt when I saw the 1% forward from @itsTomekK here. It felt like a serious troll, lol
Interesting, TIL!
Unfortunately, that is the only interview I watched with her so far ever, lol. But it was great and I want to learn more about the people behind famous companies that I like. Makes me feel connected to them in a more personal way even though it's unidirectional.
