Certainly. The problem then becomes, though, that nobody will know you did
it. It's a bit like a discussion our group had last night about deckers
and very secure hosts -- if you break into one and get out in one piece,
you can't really tell anyone about it because someone will probably come
after you. But you want to break into them to prove you're a hot decker...

Perhaps it would, sure. The way I figure it happens is that Johnsons who
aren't satisfied with the way a team performs the run will let the fixer
know, and perhaps other people they know deal with shadowrunners. A runner
group's reputation can be made or destroyed that way.
