   Is that someone from DH? Their join date was prior to us showing up.

   do you use wechat ???

   I use a "half open" high speed port scanner, so the victim doesn't even know they're being scanned, and I also use a "mule" and launch my scans remotely, piping the results back to my own machine on the sly. Getting past the routers is a piece of cake, since most people don't even set a password on it and its still set to the default.

    most of what he says is accurate, but the majority of the things he mentions are a lot more difficult to execute (and as a result, not plausible in most circumstances) than he implies. even the things that are accurate in relation to 'hacking' portrayed in movies and videogames typically take tens of hours (at least) to find, build and prepare exploits for.

    True that. I mean we're talking about movies and tv shows here. But I have to say that I do appreciate when some do depict - or at least they try - a more realistic approach. Not saying in everything but when it's possible to do smth which is actually based in reality and science, why not do it?
    
    I was also watching the same thing (from the same channel) done for Medical Scenes, and a Forensics Expert breaking down Crime Scene Investigations also. Really fun to watch and especially the forensic expert guy had some interesting informations about the most recent techniques used and researches which are ongoinng.
    
    Funny thing, from all 3 it appears that Crime movies&tv shows are the ones getting it wrong mostly, or depicting totally unrealistic situations and procedures.
