| − | The '''Mr. Robot ARG''' is an alternate reality game pertaining to the popular television show Mr. Robot. Throughout the course of the ARG, players interacted with characters and factions from the show, in order to solve puzzles. In particular, some players were recruited into fsociety, a fictional underground network of hackers. One of fsociety's main goals in the show is to disrupt a multinational corporation called E Corp.

| − | After the season finale aired the [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/ Red Wheelbarrow website] updated again, with a new [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/forkids/activitysheet/ file] in the Kid Wheelbarrow section. Previously, it had been noticed that on Firefox a new extension was automatically enabled named [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/lookingglass Looking Glass]. After examining the source code of the extension, it would change the user-agent for the site, giving a different image if you were on Firefox Nightly with Looking Glass, Firefox with Looking Glass, or another browser without Looking Glass. On the image it was noticed that the binary chart would change. It was noticed that certain spots would be filled by the other images, and by combining it all, you got the following binary segments:

| − | After the season finale aired, the DA_Remote node on [https://www.whoismrrobot.com/ WIMR] became live. After investigating in the node, it was noticed that none of the usual commands work, and there was a file in the Documents folder titled, '''epilogue.docx'''.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Soon after, it was noticed that the previous line was a hint at what to do. Typing '''destiny''' and running it in a command on the terminal redirected to a website on Red Wheelbarrow showing the clock. By investigating the source code, it was soon found that the after the player inputted 7 times, it would then submit to the website to see if that was correct. Later, it was noticed that if you were to refer back to the previous quote from DA_Remote, it mentioned semaphore. Taking the word '''DESTINY''', which is seven letters, and converting it to semaphore. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_semaphore Flag semaphore] is a way of distance communication that uses flags in certain positions. Using the left hand as the hour, and the right hand as the minute, you can get the seven times:

| − | After being signed in as admin on the Red Wheelbarrow website, you will be able to click on the '''Network Map''' in the top left corner, redirecting you to [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/admin/ this page]. Going to that page requests a password, and inputting '''REINDEERFLOTILLA''', previously found from the Red Wheelbarrow activity sheet, it will show the Red Wheelbarrow network map. Using the map, you can connect to the firewall by going to https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/vincent/.

| |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the firewall (Vincent) site, the [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/vincent/license.php license] has many references to the movie The Black Hole. The main references are '''MarcusT''', Marcus Tullius Cicero, and reference to a Cicero misquote being referenced in The Black Hole. "V.I.N.CENT: To quote Cicero: rashness is the characteristic of youth, prudence that of mellowed age, and discretion the better part of valor." Turning that quote into only lowercase letters, you get <code>rashnessisthecharacteristicofyouthprudencethatofmellowedageanddiscretionthebetterpartofvalor</code>. Using that as the password, and Cicero as the username you get access to the 4 other sites referenced on the Network Map.

| |
| − | Proceed with update?
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | The first system version is a reference to The Black Hole, with <code>03673</code> being octal for 1979, and 12.18 being the date for it's release. The same logic was used on the second version, being a reference to the movie Fright Night (Releasing on the date August 2nd, 1985). There currently has been no use for the Fright Night reference.

| − | [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/vincent/theWolf/ Proboscis Monkey (theWolf)] is the IDS, Intrusion Detection System, for the Red Wheelbarrow network. The site unlocked on January 26th along with the Firewall update. The firewall message, <code>Warning: to maintain Dutchman system compatibility administrative level 33 rotational access is required and system time must sync.</code> told the player what to do. '''Dutchman system''' pointed at going to Proboscis Monkey, '''administrative''' pointed at using '''admin''' as the username, '''level 33''' pointed at using the Red Wheelbarrow commercial, and '''rotational access''' pointed at using the Caesar cipher.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | An additional hint was given by Crypt from Curious Codes, <code> "As the days go by, I leave this thing [bowl on a lathe] rotating over and over"</code>. This lead people to investigate and found out if you were to use '''PLASTICFORKS''' (previously found from the Red Wheelbarrow commercial) and rotate it by the day of the month, you would get the password. For example, if the day was June 15th, using ROT15 the password would be '''EAPHIXRUDGZ'''.

The last number is a reference to [https://oeis.org/A181391 Van Eck's sequence], which occurred during Kor Adana's interview with the Hollywood Reporter. Using those numbers as a clue to find a password from those interviews, it was found that '''hackjamtor''' was the password for Octo Proxy.

The username and password '''WKRP'''/'''hackjamtor''' was found in the Proboscis Monkey Harvey image. Inside of Octo Proxy is a control panel with the only options being available are '''status''' and '''Webfilter Databases'''. In the '''status''' tab of Octo Proxy it had the following statistics:

| |

| − | By using process of elimination, it was found that there were 10 different glyphs, representing 1-10. Then it was determined that the glyphs read, bottom right, top left, bottom left, top right. Using that method of reading the glyphs, the message '''PREACHER PASSWORD HELLFOLLOWEDWITHHIM''' a quote from Revelation 6:8.

| − | Now that the password was found, a username had to be found. By inspecting the source code of the website, it was found that the login class was named <code>admin-login</code>, which pointed at '''admin''' being the username.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once logging in with the credentials '''admin'''/'''amphisbaena''', the following message appeared:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | WEST PASSWORD: DEADLY DISPUTE

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==FTP/Richard==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now that the FTP site on DHCP had been found, there is an input for a username and a password. A few things were noticed when trying to login, when you had the wrong login, it would give the error message, "421 Invalid username or password- the world is an imperfect place." "the world is an imperfect place," references a quote by John Bender in The Breakfast Club. Additionally, it was noticed that the password would show up in blue if the password was entered in the format of an email address. It was soon discovered that by using the default login for a guest FTP server, '''anonymous'''/'''anonymous''', was the correct logins for the FTP server.

| − | Once logged in, the message given resembles the NASA Network Applications and Info Center Archive FTP login message, with the Local Web being different. The Local Web is a pointer to go to [https://www.red-wheelbarrow.com/vincent/preacher/andrew/ /vincent/preacher/andrew], the web login for DHCP. The website has a title of "ORWELL VERIFICATION ENGINE V CC0.2041" and has the word '''GET''' in Challenge 1. Since there is no other knowledge, something else needed to be discovered. It was soon discovered that the '''dir''' command worked in the FTP terminal, with only one result '''Chat.Log.txt'''. By running the command, '''get Chat.Log.txt''' the contents of the file were displayed:
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>

| − | The file contents have multiple references to 1o57, one of the creators of the ARG. One of the first things that was noticed was that the first word, '''GET''', matched the word on the Andrew Challenge 1. At this point, it was obvious that this was required to solve Andrew. After many failed attempts, it had been noticed that the numbers were each the central coordinates for a country. Soon after, it had been realized that if you were to translate the word by the regional language of the country, it would translate to an animal. It is thought that this is another connection to Orwell, specifically his book named Animal House.
