Also known as the enigma machine from that war! What a bizarre appropriation to make.
(I mean I get it, the idea is to link the title to the recent film and make the article somehow more current and clickable. Maybe it is a cultural thing but to me it sounds jarring and crass)
- kijin 12y agoActually, the article only talks about the Enigma machine featured in the movie, not all the different models (with different rotor counts, etc.) that the Germans used throughout the war. The title might sound linkbaity, but it's accurate.
- ptaipale 12y agoYes. It's a bit like noticing that this Turing chap bears a remarkable resemblance to Sherlock Holmes.
