    so far this is the best theory I've read

    "The monologe in the begining of the show goes like this:
    What I’m about to tell you is top secret, a conspiracy bigger than all of us. There’s a powerful group of people out there that are secretly running the world. I’m talking about the guys no one knows about, the guys that are invisible. The top 1% of the top 1%, the guys that play God without permission. And now I think they’re following me.
    So there's a twist here, behind these words, and it's that he's referring to hackers.

    Lets break this down:
    What I’m about to tell you is top secret ... -- We all know someone is pulling the strings behind everything. This is a common thing to say in our day and age. It isn't really top secret. The story of fsociety hence forth is, however, top secret.

    ... the guys that are invisible. The top 1% of the top 1%, the guys that play God without permission -- hackers are virtual, they are not physically there. They can earse any trace of their presence while in a system, invisible. There are few of them out there, a fraction of a fraction of the population. We see in this season how Elliot uses his powers to control the life of those around him, and fsociety plans to do the same on a global scale. Playing God. My favorite part: permission is also a computer term.

    And now I think they’re following me -- The black suits are his body guards, sponsored by fsociety. Elliot probably never told anyone in fsociety he hired them. This is why they never attack him or take him away, and are so blatantly obvious about following him. Fight club had similar goon characters, and they would also not speak to the leader directly, even when addressed angerly, out of respect and understanding of the pecking order."
