Elliot Hacks A Pedophile | Mr. Robot

From Mr Robot Season 1 Episode 1 "eps1.0_hellofriend.mov" Socially inept Elliot Alderson works at cyber security company Allsafe. At night, he hacks social media, personal information, and bank records, including those of his co-workers, therapist, and drug dealer. Elliot stops a DDoS attack against Allsafe's biggest client, E Corp. He identifies a file labeled fsociety00.dat and a text file asking him not to destroy malware he finds hidden on E Corp's server. Mr. Robot, the mysterious leader of the hacker group fsociety, contacts Elliot on the subway. Fsociety invites Elliot to join them in starting a digital revolution; they plan to delete all debt records held by E Corp. He is intrigued and eventually agrees. As his first collaborative act with fsociety, Elliot provides the FBI with an encrypted file falsely implicating Terry Colby, E Corp's own chief technology officer (CTO) as the orchestrator of the attack.

[@onewhackman1338]

@@blacknight1313 Wouldn't say it fell flat, more got way too muddied. The story remains intact for the majority of the show, note, I have not finished the show, got most of season 4 to finish. But I have to say, later on in the series, I'd say it started with season 3, the story becomes too vast, too many subplots going on to keep track of. Whenever a character would say something that I am supposed to understand, I never understood what they actually said until an episode later, your just given so many words you've never heard, given at least 6 stories to keep track of and it leaves the mid to end part of the story overly muddy and too hard to keep track of. The story was still good, just not told in the best way.

@@mryellow6918 it still does protect you very well, or atleast as long as you're not against some heavily/goverment funded adversary, tor itself uses 3 layered encryption which starts at your browser and ends at either exit node or at the webserver itself if it's a dedicated onion webserver, and even when it ends at the exit node your connection is still encrypted by TLS/SSH basically HTT/PS. The way Elliot compromised the server in this video is pretty simple, he didn't really exploit the onion routing at all. In a dedicated onion server the server is actually the exit node or the last node. The server itself was directly connected to the lan in the cafe(basically being hosted there), and everyone on the cafe's wifi was on the same connection as the server. All Elliot did was to find out that a server existed on the network (most probably due to the high bandwidth usage) and then he was able to compromise it by probably exploiting one of the plethora of pre-existing server vulnerabilities. And, looking at the existing ( or atleast known ) attack vectors of the Onion Routing framework there exists only a few. The more known one being "Exit Node MITM Attack", which could be easily avoided by using HTT/PS based websites as your traffic would be encrypted by PMS even after leaving the exit node, and SSL downgrades are blocked by most browsers, and while there exists "SSL certificate attacks", they could only be carried by someone who has access to be able to create a Certificate from a trusted certificate authority, again that being possibly only possible for the government. And the other one being controlling the Entry and exit nodes(and if possible the node in between too as while it's technically possible to correlate metadata between entry and exit nodes, it's a tedious and could not work sometimes if the traffic is high on the nodes.), But then again for that you basically need to operate a large number of onion routing nodes, which basically translates to high financial ability, which is only possible for very heavily funded organizations. Such as government.

I really hope more and more people will discover this show, I'll admit the long stretches between seasons did make certain things hard to follow at times. And I would usually rewatch every season right before the next one came out. Now that you can just watch one episode a day or binge it in a week, you will probably be able to catch things more easily. I will say it was a smart choice to have the first episode be filmed in an almost David Fincher kind of way before they created their own language with the camera to tell this story. The pilot is so good that it will hook you in and you will likely not notice that things have changed until you are about halfway through the season, and even then you believe that part of it is because they are trying to show with the camera how the drugs are affecting Elliot's mind. So when you get to season 2 you are just used to that this is the look of the show.
