So yes the original creator of the puzzle did work on the show, but he only worked on it AFTER his puzzle was featured (likely he was on season 3 because there's a twitter post announcing he's working on one of the writers after the season 2. Also there's a reddit post from his account saying he controls the number and he doesn't work for the show.). The funny thing is he does control the number, and likely it's not his main cell but he does get calls occasionally and he answers it sometimes to troll people. He then made mr robot themed ARGs, so he took it pretty well in the end.

Exactly, it’s was something submitted freely to an event
@lucasaustin98725 ай бұрын
Using someone else's work without notifying them at all is morally and legally dubious.. And the fact that they didn't even change his number is pretty negligent.. The fact that it was "submitted freely for an event" doesn't matter at all... It was submitted for one purpose.. which didn't include mass distribution. Because HAD the original intent been mass distribution, or had they even notified him beforehand about their intent, he probably would have asked that some things be changed like say... his phone number.

Just because someone is a consultant doesn’t mean they were consulted. The live action dragon ball movie had the OG creator on as a consultant and I dare you to ask any dragon ball fan how that went. The live action dumpster fire they call avatar the last air bender had the creators as consultants and look how that turned out. Having someone as a consultant doesn’t mean shit

Are you saying.. you didn't redact a phone number in a publically accessible writeup? That doesn't seem right. How did this actually happen?
@jorex40115 ай бұрын
Didnt got too far on programing but: The puzzlemaster gives you or want you to find something, in this case the number. You cant just redact the number because the code itself somehow should give you the number. (I might be completly wrong, after all i failed that carrer but i tried)

After the pilot of Mr. Robot aired, a lot of cybersecurity people were hired, and by season 2 this included the founder and director of DEF CON and Black Hat Briefings, as well as DEF CON's head of security. When this episode aired, the head of that team posted "Who caught the @defcon 22 badge challenge reference in tonight's episode? Thank you to @thedarktangent and @1o57" (@thedarktangent being Jeff Moss, founder and director of DEF CON) To which 1o57 replied, "I'm flattered, and I really enjoy the show. It's ok guys, no need to attack @KorAdana he is doing a great job." Given they had access to the director of the conference, thought the puzzle was cool, put it in, and credited the guy who made it (who okayed it and went on to also consult for the show), what right does a guy who solved it have to be mad over it the puzzle being used?
@WalkthroughHordeАй бұрын
also I've read in these comments that that number wasn't the personal phone number of 1o57, but a number that he controlled. I don't know why Thor thinks it's his personal number, since he worked to solve the puzzle, and in that puzzle when you called the number it played piano notes you had to decode (The part in the show was just step 1 of many). Got that information from his write up btw! Had to make sure to credit him so he doesn't come for me next
