I liked how the topics of surveillance, cryptography, civil liberties got at least as much attention as the plot. Strong choice to not cover the terrorists at all.
It feels of its time, not in a bad way though. But Xbox, burning CDs, and the post 9/11 surveillance state. A little depressing when you consider how much more digital surveillance exists now.
