CJACOBS: 002

[cjacobs]

Maryle and I were able to pull data from the CPU delivered by Cal and Eva.

The Sterilization Event was triggered by a significant group of people in Xitang being partially severed from the veil. 20 self-reports were evaluated by HDroids, which identified a specific defect in the neural implants. HDroids fixed the imperfections and relinked to the Veil. However, anti-Architect graffiti began to pop up around the city, indicating more people had defective implants other than the 20 self-reports.

Mass scans revealed that the entire city had spontaneously partially severed. This triggered three protocols:

1. The sterlization protocol in Xitang. We disrupted this.
   
2. Mandatory inspection check by HDroids for anyone with chips that were implanted in 2005 is currently ongoing.
   
3. A relocation effort of all defective implants to Sighisoara, Romania by Feb 28. This is for another sterilization protocol.

Issues

1. Do any Dislinked agents have a chip that was implanted in 2005? If so, they are going to end up being noticed as not on the radar.
   
2. How to deal with Sighisoara, Romania?

Do we fully sever the evacuees, or relink them? Being in a prolonged partial state can trigger catastrophic neural regression. Relinking them and re-integrating them into other pres cities would keep them protected.

How do we deal with our agents who had chips in 2005?

Do any of you have a 2005 implant?

Comments

[cjacobs]

I agree. But we do need to come up with viable options.

[searlait]

What are the current viable ideas?

[cjacobs]

Not my area of expertise. I think Neuroclast and Neural Implants are going to be the one with more actual ideas.

[searlait]

Alright.

[cjacobs]

I felt that everyone should know the information Maryle and I found. Not keep it to leadership only. So I only have information without answers.

[searlait]

Your information is appreciated. You do not have to explain yourself.

[cjacobs]

Noted.

Current viable options off the top of my head:

1. Temporary reconnection. Not my ideal, especially if the Hdroids are doing sweeps. Any agent who isn't found and scanned will end up with a hit on them.
2. Infiltration. Send those agents into Pres cities to be swept and rounded up. This would require a Battlest plan in order to extract them, and that's if they aren't forcibly reconnected.
3. Keep them out of the field indefinitely. There will be hits on them making them a liability.

[searlait]

I cannot see any agents agreeing to option three. How about 4. Fake death records for our agents.

[adrii]

Can you hack into Architect systems and create them? I'm not being snide here: if you have the ability, that would be the ideal option. I do not have that ability.

[searlait]

That seems like a question better directed at those in the tech space.

[adrii]

engineering technology

Does anyone have a hope of hacking?

[niim]

My computer science is whatever I picked up from Carl.

@ HBATTEUX?

[loculus]

I understand that being underestimated is Espioinage's specialty but we do have this ability, albeit on smaller scales thus far. It's essential for Undercover. It would be a useful resource for whoever's up to the task.

[iyla]

could we infiltrate veiled hospitals and update those systems with new death certificates?

[adrii]

From a technological side, yes. We'd have to target several hospitals all over the world so as to not trigger anything, and we wouldn't be able to backdate anything. That would also flag, I would assume.

Espionage would be the one who could determine the feasibility and risk factors, however.

[iyla]

a ton of people die every day. certainly more than we’ve got agents.

[jaxsons]

We could trigger a security breach under the guise of stealing private health information. Obviously we wouldn't be targeting that, but it could be used as a cover. A lot of hospitals are more digital; there wouldn't even be a paper trail.

[searlait]

Funeral parlours too, perhaps. Smaller, and it would be easy to believe they hadn't lodged all their paperwork on time to spread out some of the deaths.

[iyla]

that could certainly work. i imagine they have less security too.

[philiip]

Re agents, I can't see how 2 or 3 or 1 would be acceptable to anyone here unless we've definitively ruled out Keane's suggestion.

[adrii]

As I said, if anyone can hack the system to create false death certificates, that would be the ideal for agents.

[philiip]

Agree.

Adrip.

[adrii]

You were 2006, correct?

Adrip.

[philiip]

Yes.
