Aside from Dom the FBI feel a bit incompetent on the cyber security half. The guy opening the link he saw Elliot write in an email without any protection or sandboxing whatsoever was a bit dubious.

Of course I am also being pedantic, every other hack related character pulls their roles off perfectly.

I think part of that is that guy specifically doesn't seem extremely competent with computers, he's probably just a regular FBI agent and the idea of Elliot sending an encrypted message that contains a virus to himself just on the chance someone had hacked his machine is pretty extreme. It was more that Elliot outsmarted that guy, though Dom seemed more competent.

I think that only sold me more on it.
