It's a great show but, also a fiction.

One would not necessarily expect that it was the actual Mr. Robot who created the website for the show. In fact I'd expect it to be a relatively junior agency.

Which would mean they've got QA & security process to match.

I'd also suspect that as an overwhelmingly awesome show that glorifies hackers, they're probably a relatively "safe" target.

I mean, we're talking the game of thrones of computer nerd shows here...

Or attracts hackers. ;)

Nevertheless I find it more telling in terms of what the given company is about by their response to being shown a vulnerability than necessarily writing perfect software every time.
