Science Fiction often forewarns us. For your amusement/enlightenment, here is a side by side of Dark Angel’s Logan Cale and NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden.

We may not have any super soldiers (to our public knowledge) but we definitely have a surveillance state.
What have things come to?

From Wikipedia,
“Logan Cale is a cyber-journalist who uses his knowledge of computer technology to bring down the corrupt power brokers of the new millennium. Heir to a family fortune, Logan hacks into television cable networks and delivers his scathing video messages under the pseudonym and alter ego Eyes Only.”
