My Summary & Thoughts on Mr.Robot

Seeing the World Through the Eyes of a Hacker!


Mr. Robot is an amazing story about an alone Isolated hacker named Elliot. The show starts with us, the viewer, pushed into the life of a schizophrenic young man who does not know how to relate to people on a personal physical level. Because of the lack of being able to connect with people he talks to an imaginary friend, which just happens to be us the viewer.

The only way that he manages to connect with "real" people in his life is through learning about them by hacking all of their online accounts and social media profiles. He justifies his actions by saying that he is protecting the nativity of those closest to his life. He feels that he will never have this naive simpleness in his life so he cherishes this in others.

Elliot is tormented by the flaws of society and how the the elites control people by exploiting the bugs (weaknesses) in each person. Yet he feels powerless to change any of this, because he is not "special". Despite the fact that he feels he can't change this, he still uses his hacking abilities to do what he feels will balance the scale of those who are taken advantage of.

By day he works for a cyber security firm called "allsafe", protecting one of the biggest corporations that exist called,"E-corp" (or as Elliot reprogrammed his mind to hear & see everywhere "evil-corp"). By night he is a vigilante hacker, sending anonymous tips to the police to take down pedophiles and others who have escaped the justice system.

Elliot Meets Mr. Robot


After protecting Allsafe from a DDOS attack, Elliot encounters Mr.Robot; Who seems to somehow know about Elliot preventing the DDOS attack and lures Elliot in to join his team called Fsociety. This is a team that Mr.Robot created to take down Evil-corp , the very system that Elliot is paid to protect. He is told that if he wants to stay in the group he must frame the CTO by putting his IP Address into the Data file when the FBI comes to investigate the DDOS Attack. In an attempt to fight back against the invisible hands that control all of us.

Elliot is now left with a choice, Live a normal life by pretending to be unaware of the flaws of society or to abandon his old life by fighting back against the elites that manipulate our daily lives.

I highly recommend that if you are not already watching this TV series, that you start to do so now. Much like the movie (originally a book) fight club with the counter movement against society, except with the new twist of adding technology. The way that we are immersed into the world of Elliot, feeling all his flaws and truths of his twisted perspective, is beautiful. Seeing the world through the perspective of hacker, using computer terms to make real world analogies, is very fascinating. Feeling the on edge aspect of each character develop is very exciting. It has been very fun for me to watch this series and I can barely stop watching each episode...... Actually, I think I am going to watch another one right now. Oh, and one last thing....

F@$k Society!
