Anybody else catch the QR code that flashed by when he was journaling on the Season Premier of Mr. Robot Season 2? If you did it'll take you to the following website: http://www.conficturaindustries.com/
I know it looks like some shit ass GeoCities site right?! Well… Pop open your dev tools and poke around and you'll run across some pretty explicit "hints" that it's not just some long forgotten web property.
—- code —
var AdobeTracking = new Object();
AdobeTracking.division = 'Cable';
AdobeTracking.businessUnit = 'USA Network';
AdobeTracking.contentGroup = 'Drama';
AdobeTracking.contentType = 'Home';
AdobeTracking.pageName = 'Mr. Robot : S2 Easter Egg Sites : Confictura Industries : Home';
AdobeTracking.showSite = 'Mr. Robot';
AdobeTracking.showSiteFeature = 'Mr. Robot : S2 Easter Egg Sites';
AdobeTracking.showSiteFeatureII = 'Mr. Robot : S2 Easter Egg Sites : Confictura Industries';
_satellite.pageBottom();
property.

Also… if you look up the latin root for confictura you'll get the following: falsehood, Fancy, fantasy, FICTION, forgery, imagination, invention, lie, phantasy.
There also appears to be a book, Confictura by Thomas Moore(via Amazon), that references a story of an illusionist.
There are also references to DEMDEX within the code. demdex.net is a domain used by Demdex which is an advertising company that is part of a network of sites, cookies, and other technologies used to track you, what you do and what you click on, as you go from site to site, surfing the Web.
