I would much rather prefer to see a normal set of people being shown as the heroes of the story. While it is nice to see some badass hackers doing nija moves through a government facility, it is much more enticing to me to instead have some young adults and 20-somethings starting the beginnings of a revolution for what they believe in. Think of how Mr.Robot's Elliot is an interesting character because he is somewhat of an outsider.
I have an especially high hype about this because it's independent creation means that it doesn't have to be created in accordance to how the top brass thinks will make the most money. I am a big fan of cyberpunk fiction as you may guess.
