Kinda explains how the series went from trying to take down a monopolistic hegemonic American corp to fight some trans “Chinese Capitalist” covert menace with sci-fi because those are the “real enemies”. At least the people who may want to watch it know about piracy.
It’s honestly one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. But you do have to “buy in” to the narrative a bit. They use tech terminology correctly, but it’s clear the writers got help from software developers, but are not developers themselves.
The show actually goes significantly deeper than just good guys and bad guys. A major theme of the show is the main characters mental illness, it’s actually a very good portrayal of an unreliable narrator.
If you’re willing to sit through the tech and the relatively shallow corporate bad guys, the show is truly worth watching.
Edit: I’m a dev but when I watched the show was not yet ML.
