b'In this week\'s episode, your favorite radical hacker collective get into the nitty gritty of 90\'s tech paranoia via the 1995 films Hackers and Strange Days. Caro can\'t help but admire SD\'s attempt to create compelling fable for its time; while Ebony and Anita discuss the gendered violence the film doesn\'t allow us to look away from. Hackers turned out to be a bit harder to reckon with -- not least because Caro couldn\'t get past the image of a skateboarding Fisher Stevens; Ebony was tormented by Lorraine Bracco\'s befuddled shrieking; and Anita found the film\'s technobabble to be long on "cool," but short on substance.'
