I'm currently reading "The Wireless World" chapter of SR4.

God do I love the Matrix 2.0 zones!

Especially the Spam Zones! ^_^ I think that we will have a *LOT* of fun roleplaying those!

For those who don't own SR4 yet, they introduced the concept of "zones" in the matrix. Currently, 3 types of zones are described:

-Dead Zones where there is no matrix signals at all...
-Static Zones where the access are intermittent or unreliable
-Spam Zones where you are constantly bombarded by spams of all type

I can easily imagine some kind of twisted corporate security where those zones can be provoked and exploited... ^_^

What do you all think about this?
