Something I was wondering about, the nastiest surprise in 3rd ed ICE was psychotropic ice, instead of killing the decker it could program them. Imagine how much nastier Missing Blood gets if the decker isn't killed by the UB black ice but instead get's brain washed into handing us over. SOOOO not good.

So this made me wonder. with so many people hooked up with active AR/VR in the 4th ed. How much more common might psychotropic ICE be? OK Not turning everyone inot a good little corp slave, you'd get psychotic going through a mall but what about subliminal advertising? Stuff fed right into your brain before you can say 'no thanks, just looking."
