The character is just an amazingly good hacker. They operate at speeds us mere mortals can't comprehend /s

Also: what's up with the fake browsers? How difficult us it to setup a local webserver, setup a hosts entry and use a real browser to open the webpage? Or open a static webpage via file:// protocol. I find it more effort to "program" a fake browser with complete interface....

Never mind fake browsers, fake OSes. When do you see Windows or macOS or Linux on anything in movies. They always replace the OS with some super futuristic cyber system.

They just don't know how to code this properly. To look real, it should go quickly to 95%, stall there for some minutes, go back to 91.7% and then take ages to 99.9%

And then hang on 100% for hours before finaly crashing
