    I’m not fully up on Terminator lore, but aren’t they from the future? Seems like they could probably have a pretty good idea on most things just from stored data

      Terminator 2 was made and set in the early 90s from what I remember. There was no stored data for most things, and if there was, it probably wouldn’t have survived the nuclear bombs that started the war with the machines

        Fully agreed. This was before the ubiquity of the Internet and mass storage of data.

        Although the T-1000 could have, and probably should have, at least given the house a once over

      Major plot point was using a phone book to find people. There wasn’t much stored data back then.

      Medical records for example mostly only go back to around mid 90’s digitally.
