The new trailer for "Call of Duty: Black Ops II" is a gritty, realistic portrayal of modern geopolitical challenges. One of the main threats to our security being hackers.
"The enemy could be anywhere and it could be anyone," the narrator says as a picture of the Guy Fawkes mask flashes on the screen. The masks were used in the graphic novel, and later, the film "V for Vendetta." More recently, the mask has become the symbolic face for the hacking group Anonymous.
