    Outdated - so quickly

    I watched this today and laughed at a few parts at the beginning as it was ludicrous,outdated,fake and lies.

    I checked online to see what year(s) it was produced and it made me laugh even harder. The blurb from US authorities about cyber tech and using it in conflicts and using it legally and justifiably was hilarious.

    The theatre of war has so many 'bad actors' that one of them is the same as the next. The 'autonomous machines' they refer to are more human than the bad actors that like to portray themselves as the force behind them.

    The actors are the problem in this case and not the bots.

    Having said all that even though it's hilariously outdated and politically motivated it's good fun.

    Used to be good

    Season 1 was pretty good. Season 2 would have been better if it hadn't been turned into a far left media outlet to promote opinions & lies. They present opinion as truth and fact, when no facts are presented at all. They refer to other opinions as fact, where there is no facts supporting their claims. It's good if you remove the BS politics out of it. Unfortunately, it's being used like several shows to inject fear into people. This is now another show I will not watch anymore, just like Saturday Night Live.

    Great show

    I like the momentum of the show, what I learn from it & how he seems to ask just the right amount of questions.

    I was also surprised they travel worldwide to interviews so they can get the perspective from all sides.

    I was surprised it was Canadian made, but happy they did a great job in production.

    I hope it's renewed, as I searched high & low & am unable to see if it's canceled or coming back.

    We need good quality shows surrounding this topic that affects our lives. It's taken way too many years for this topic to come to light.

    Lies

    So are you going to practice professional journalism and retract your proven lies from season 2? We all now know the DNC and Hillary made up the Russian hoax. You are fake news too!

    Amazing Season 1

    Absolutely amazing and thrilling season. This season is what this show was meant to be. It got me excited about ethical hacking and helping everyone around me.

    Season 2 felt like a left propaganda, season 2 felt very politically motivated. Technical quality was still amazing.
