    Also: what’s up with the fake browsers? How difficult us it to setup a local webserver, setup a hosts entry and use a real browser to open the webpage? Or open a static webpage via file:// protocol. I find it more effort to “program” a fake browser with complete interface…

      Never mind fake browsers, fake OSes. When do you see Windows or macOS or Linux on anything in movies. They always replace the OS with some super futuristic cyber system.

            Nope, they use a GUI program called ‘Data Extraction Program’:
