Seventeen year old Marcus and his friends are in the wrong place at the wrong time during a major terrorist attack on San Francisco. They are held by the Department of Homeland Security for days before being released, only to discover that their city has turned into a surveillance society police state. They decide to resist in the only way they know how: by taking down the DHS.

Not afraid to have a political viewpoint

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.
