The question is not if it is accurate (Chris Hemsworth as a hacker? Get real. Any accuracy in this film is almost certainly accidental.) but if it is an entertaining film.
Wikipedia thinks that "Subversion refers to an attempt to transform the established social order and its structures of power, authority, and hierarchy. ".
I thought Subversion was a Revision Control System akin to Git and CVS.
