Hacker Movies Series Episode 3

While You Were Doxing 

Sandra Bullock can’t convince anyone that she’s a lonely programmer who spends her days debugging video games after a Bill Gates wannabe uses The Net to hack her identity. How desperate is the Speed star to fix her public image that she turns to SNL comic Dennis Miller to defend her against doctored charges of streetwalking and drug use?  And will Justin, Stuart, and Arnie recognize this 1995 thriller as a cutting-edge warning against cybercrime or a cartoonish exaggeration of internet capability? Log into Now Playing’s Donation Bonus Hacker series to find out!
