![]() One, an organization like SHIELD (back in the day, not any more of course) should have dozens if not hundreds of people assigned to the express purpose of countering the very things she was doing early on. ![]() ![]() I think the problem with Skye being a hacker in the first place is twofold. Now that she's developing these quake powers and has gotten some field agent skills, I wonder if her hacking will be a relic. But now that Big SHIELD is no more, maybe there just aren't as many hackers any more. It never made sense that Skye as hacker was apparently able to do things that the rest of SHIELD could or did not, or that they would trust her with her mysterious background over the many actual SHIELD agents. (But I will dip a toe in the shallow pool and say I miss seeing her like in that magenta dress from Season One.) However, this season, they've done a lot to de-glam her, which I think has mostly worked for the character. Some people have complained that Skye is too glam to be a hacker. Like when Mack took out Bloom, she should have been all over that stuff getting additional leads from his joint, his cell phones, etc. This season, she hasn't been able to use her skills to get a line on Hydra very much at all, at least on camera. Last season, it was about Centipede and her family. Skye doesn't seem to actually use her hacking to get real answers. Skye's "hacking" often consists of stuff everyone can do, like using Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. But it was also an illustration of how the powers that be have tried to address at least some of them. Skye-as-hacker made a brief return in "Who You Are," and it was a reminder of many of the problems with it, or alleged problems with it.
