Notes for season 1 episode 16<\/a>, “Risk”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10:45 Finch runs a “GPRS reroute” to stop the target’s calls being monitored – which I assume from context is putting a reroute entry in the cellphone provider’s database – ie the mechanism used for number portability. Except later we still see that he gets text messages, so they’re being forwarded anyway?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13:13 A Wolf on Wall Street. (SEC investigator is played by Scott Cohen, who I recognise as “Wolf” from TV mini-series “The 10th Kingdom<\/a>“.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19:20 If you’re setting up to kill someone, why wouldn’t you also disable the security cameras recording the scene?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

27:40 “The safest I’ve ever been is when I was anonymous.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

28:50 The show uses a map on the EIA website<\/a> to illustrate fracking<\/p>\n\n\n\n

28:52 Two more perpetual domain registrations for Warners: eastvillagedispatch.co<\/code>m, newyorkdailytrumpet.com<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

32:55 “His phone is tethered to his calendar, maybe I can hack into his GPS.” I assume this means the broker’s phone is either keeping an open network connection to the calendar server, or makes periodic requests, which might somehow be used to retrieve location data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

33:30 Ah, the heel’s lament. “I was so frustrated in my efforts to fight crime that I was forced to become the biggest criminal.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

38:00 Doing a short squeeze to thwart the brokers is an interesting TV twist, but in 2023 the short squeeze has mainstream recognition thanks to GameStonks<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
