Very informative, the conversations are very well led. My only concern was the "lolz" quality, the puppet in a place of one of the speakers made it look unprofessional and I know it was meant to represent the anonymity of the hackers but it looked like a bad muppet show. Overall this is a good documentary on an important subject. I will certainly follow the stories of the people shown/mentioned while keeping one eye open on the government and the next steps they'll take to protect the security on the Internet.
I'm really enjoying this series. The topic is interesting, but the mostly balanced tone they strike is refreshing, not opting for 'hacker fanboy' or 'hackers are evil bad' as a default position. Politics is mostly kept on a non partisan course which is a rarity at the moment, leaving the viewer to decide based on the presented facts. The topics feel current and edgy and slightly dangerous too, which makes for some very interesting and informative viewing, really going in-depth on some stories we only got a sound bite look at in the mainstream media. I don't know how they managed to get some of these interviews but it's great to have a show like this giving us real insight into a mostly hidden from view topic. The presenter comes across as calm and even minded, and well informed with plenty of back knowledge on the topics he discusses. Good on Canada vice for making this top notch program with high production standards and a well written and easy to understand approach to some complex topics.
I watched this today and laughed at a few parts at the beginning as it was ludicrous,outdated,fake and lies.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Having said all that even though it's hilariously outdated and politically motivated it's good fun.

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.
