Possible conversation at NSA HQ:
"They know everything about us."
"That's bad."
"They'll release it to our enemies if we try to erase it."
"Call the Pentagon and have that flying submarine of theirs nuke the asteroid. We'll call it a training accident."
Nobody wants that - it's no good from a storytelling point of view. Hence the change...
HRogge Wrote:But I am curious, is the Alexandria Archive's data available for everyone? Like a huge Fen-Google search engine?That's a good question... I know some people have better access than others do - Noah Scott has been known to "lend his library card" on occasion, which indicates he can access data that others can't. But how much of the data can everybody access?
