Yes it definitely was. Once you look at the logos and the company it's an obvious nod to that fixture of business and IT in the region. https://mrrobot.fandom.com/wiki/Steel_Mountain



Oh yeahhhh I didn't even notice that logo. Cool! I like it when shows give a nod to the real world. Especially Mr. Robot where so much attention was spent on details. It was really refreshing to not see hollywood hacking there (a "HACKING..." progress bar on a green screen :P )

I wonder if Evilcorp was also based on something. Edit: Ah I see it was Enron. Thanks for that link to the wiki, I didn't know it.
