Heres something thats always bothered me. Do PC's have commlink providers costs included in there lifestyle. Guessing it's assumed hackers however are stealing there service. What about using Sat Uplinks (dont have unwired yet) does hacker have to hack sat to use it or is it part of the assumed "stolen service"?

in Unwired there are:
Basic MSP Service (25Y/month included in Low Lifestyle)
Adv. MSP Service (50Y/month included in Medium Lifestyle)
Premium MSP Service (100Y/month)

Tycho

And included in to hight and better lifestyle

The medium lifestyle does not necessarily require a SIN, so the MSP could be a gray or black MSP. Many are sort of detailed in Unwired, but make up your own if you care to.

A lot of the time, you're piggy-backing onto access that's left lying around by businesses, or which is sponsored by corps, with ads and gateways that push the corp's services.

That would explain all the Ares pop ups.
