New GM here. I've done some searching, but haven't found answers to a few hacking/rigging questions. Hopefully someone a bit more familiar with SR4 can help me...

1. It states that standard electronic devices only have admin accounts. What exactly defines a "standard electronic device"? Is a commlink a standard device (thus adding +6 to all attempts to hack a commlink), or does it have the three different levels of access?

2. When hacking a drone, and the drone is on a rigger's subscription list, do you hack into the drone (using the drone's stats); or into the commlink of the rigger controlling the drone (which might have different stats), and from there into the drone? One example would be a patrolling police drone, as mentioned in the "Interacting with AR" sidebar.

3. Do technomancers leave a datatrail that can be tracked, or do they just leave a matrix signature only other technomancers can detect, or both?

Any help would be *greatly* appreciated. Thanks... :wobble:
