Very similar to what happens in Mr. Robot where the plan is to encrypt all of the biggest worldwide bank's records so that they're inaccessible, thus wiping out the majority of debt.
- jedberg 5y agoSpoiler alert!
- gruez 5y agobut what about backups and/or other supporting documents? You'd have to hit multiple places at the same time, some of which aren't fully digital.

- drclau 5y agoHow will they know who to hunt if all the records are gone?
- new_guy 5y agoWouldn't matter. It'd be on you to prove you don't owe them money.
- readflaggedcomm 5y agoCreditors would be doing the hunting.
- floydnoel 5y agoThanks for the spoiler…
- codetrotter 5y agoAfaict, they are referencing s04e09. It came out Dec 1 2019. If you didn’t watch it yet, were you ever really going to? Imo, spoilers without warnings are fair after 3 months time+ for TV shows and movies. Maybe even sooner.
- dane-pgp 5y agoNew people are being born all the time who haven't had the opportunity to watch the entire history of television (or even just the best 10%). By spoiling a show that you've watched, you're denying them the opportunity to experience the joy that you had.

- dane-pgp 5y agoThere is some information that people want to learn through conversation, some that people don't mind learning through conversation, and some that people actively want to avoid learning through conversation. I don't know why you'd reach the conclusion that all information falls into the latter category.
- jedberg 5y ago> If you didn’t watch it yet, were you ever really going to? Yes. I have the whole thing saved and did in fact plan on watching it eventually.
- russelg 5y agoWhat? They're referencing the events of the first season. The whole first season was about making their data useless.
