>>>>>[Following up on Wolf 359's information, I've managed to locate the
LTG range for Automated Infoworks (Meyer's new company). It's a ghost
site, so there is no way to tell where he is PHYSICALLY. But the LTGs
are attached to ChiNet out of Chicago, so accompanied with the mail-drop
in Minneapolis, we can assume that he is somewhere in the western UCAS.

Anyways, the LTG range is ***encrypted***. Be careful checking it out.
Leon may be a putz, but he IS an excellent computer programmer and he
could probably clean your clock.

More information as we get it.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Amazing isn't it. The fragger gets arrested and thrown in jail for
kidnapping and various other crimes. He then gets a lightened sentence for
working on Omega Island, and then the fragging UCAS Goverment lets him start
a corporation. I wonder what old Joe thinks of these developments? ]<<<<<

>>>>>[Remember, though, that Meyers wasn't convicted of kidnapping or
murder. He did plead guilty to conspiracy, which is really just a bogus
crime. He was sentenced to a year and a day in prison, but Omega
contracted his prison sentence, meaning that for a year and a day Meyers
had to be a prisoner to Omega. He got off early for good behavior.

Also, Meyers didn't commit his crimes in UCAS, so that's a plus for him.

As for Joe, haven't talked to him.]<<<<<

>>>>>[OK,FYI on AI(god I love acronyms:) I accessed tha SAN on the
Automated
infoworks net about a half-hour ago...that's as far as I was willing to go...
and I'm talking with kuang eleven grade double digit ICbreakers (who remembers
the old Gibson novels that started it all huh?..man was a genius)...anyway, I
got into tha SAN using the backdoor I created earlier..the IC is even thicker
there now than it was yesterday..whoever's running that system is .ve-ry.
security paranoid, he must be devoting about 50% of available resources to IC,
and there was further inactive in the node... what else can I tell you..there
were three nodes connected to this one..one a datastore where most of the data
seemed to be going..I tried to head down that line and IC appears like magic..
an angel of death..so very appropriate for my scheme of things..I zeus'ed 'im
once or twice and he was gone(.and so was my hangover..It's amazing what pure
adrenaline does for you..)but I ended up setting up alarms all over the place
and two darth-vader figures appeared(guess what..I'm an old Sci-Fi fan...Naa
Really!?...)having heard something about them here on shadowland before I decid
decided to bug out and ask the designer for any tips on how to do them without
breaking a sweat..I know about trade secrets and stuff..but I think everyone mu
st be interested in Automated and what their at?...]>>>

>>>>>[Woah, Chummers, stay far, far away from Automated Infoworks if
you value your decks. All this talk about Meyers and Automated piqued
my curiousity, so I thought I would take a look. Fine, right? I head
in, stealth mode to the max, and all of this data is streaming in.
There is data about EVERYTHING going into that place. This piqued my
curiousity even more, so I figured I'd just slip in and see where all
that info was going... Nice and smooth, I peaked my stealth and
sensors and tried to slip in with the data packets. As soon as I came
within sensor range of the place, something hit me HARD. I have no
idea what it was, because it fried my deck with one hit, and nearly
got me as well. I'm telling you chummers, if you value your deck and
your mind I'd stay way away from that place.]<<<<<

Well, it isn't going anywhere anytime soon.]<<<<<
