Biography
Miles Lydon is known throughout the hacking world and beyond as one of the very best ay the game. Lydon managed to hack into the Kremiln and retrieve embarrassing pictures of Vladimir Putin.

Lydon is a member of the "hactivist" group known as the Rising Tide. Rising Tide is a group of like-minded hackers the world over who share a common belief-- that all information should be free and available to all who could use it.

Lydon was romantically involved with fellow Rising Tide hacker, Skye. Lydon taught Skye many computer skills that she used in her quest to find the truth about her parents.

Lydon remained in contact with Skye when she infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. hoping to find evidence about her parents identity. When a hack of his brought him to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s attention, Skye warned him away with a text. Skye soon joined him in his Austin Texas apartment. \ Lydon was surprised to hear that Skye found S.H.I.E.L.D. to be less monstrous than they had imagined. However, after a brief romantic interlude,, they were found out and detained by agent Melinda May.

Brought back to the Bus for interrogation, Skye tried to defend Lydon to her team as they flew to Hong Kong. However, the truth then came out-- Despite their shared ideals, Lydon accepted payment of one million dollars from a woman named Raina for information that was later used to endanger the life of a man named Chan Ho Yin.

Despite Lydon's insistence that he only did it so they could build a life together, Skye was horrified that Lydon would abandon his ideals like that. Realizing that he wasn't the man she thought him to be, Skye broke off their relationship.

Lydon later aided Agent Phil Coulson's team when their extraction mission went bad, and after it was over Coulson offered Lydon a choice-- a cell or a monitoring bracelet that would prevent him from using electronic equipment. Coulson then left him in Hong Kong without any money (as Coulson donated the money from information about Chan to the family of slain S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Kwan Chen, who died on the mission) or any way to return home.
