Our Assets are Your Assets

MEMORANDUM FOR NBN LOCAL AFFILIATES FROM: NEW ANGELES NBN HQ SUBJECT: CONTROL THE MESSAGE.

Recent populist rallies worldwide have spread misinformation to the masses regarding NBN’s key assets. There is a danger that the public’s outcry against the number of assets held by corporations such as NBN could result in a loss of profits in the long run. NBN is instituting a global initiative to provide corrective programming to global citizens. The following instructions constitute a mandatory directive for all NBN Local Affiliates.

Anti-Asset Protestors

Project: CONTROL THE MESSAGE.

Propaganda decrying “asset spam” must not be allowed to reach the general public. Instead, NBN must reveal the truth about the rally organizers and their unsavory backgrounds. These agitators consist of rebellious youths, hackers, and known criminals. It is straightforward to acquiesce the whereabouts of these persons using these NBN technologies, some of which have been acquired through collaboration with Jinteki and HB specifically for this project.

City Surveillance is a useful measure for tracking down agitators. It is expensive for these rogue individuals to evade this technology for too long. If agitators are particularly elusive, they can be traced using NBN’s new, clandestine Restructured Datapool.

There is a danger that an agitator may sabotage this project, but this is to our advantage. We can use the ensuing Media Blitz to track down the saboteurs once and for all.

Agitators may attempt to circumvent our lawful procedures by hacking into corporate servers. This is where we truly have the upper hand. Recent innovations in NBN’s data technology have made it easy to trace runners who attempt to sabotage NBN’s digital assets. This illicit behavior will also allow us to institute Manhunts backed by full force of local law enforcement, Aryabhata Tech, and of course, an array of Primary Transmission Dishes. Local populations will be distracted by HB’s Clone Suffrage Movement demonstrations, allowing us to use any means necessary.

If we are unable to find them, the local population will, as the unsavory activities of these agitators will be broadcast on NBN’s newest and already universally consumed program: Hard-Hitting News.

It is only a matter of time until the agitators are found. NBN’s Diversified Portfolio will provide ample funds to this end. Once found, these activists’ ability to enlist support will be crippled. They will face trashed resources and Closed Accounts, allowing NBN to take complete control of their persons.

Once subjects have been full apprehended, NBN affiliates can enact the final procedure in Project CONTROL THE MESSAGE: rehabilitation. Using NBN’s Psychographics together with recent developments in immersive communication via Project Beale, we can recondition a subject to understand the harmful effects of his or her countercultural behavior. With the rally organizer on our side, the rest of the public will fall into line. Our new spokespersons will spread the word about the true value of NBN’s assets. NBN’s assets provide services to the public. Assets should not be limited by governing bodies.

[Only ice centrals. Spam assets to get rich with recurring Diversified Portfolio. If the runner refuses to float tags by not running, score Restructured Datapool. If they steal it, copy it with Media Blitz. With Primary Transmission Dish and Aryabhata Tech, you will eventually bankrupt them and give them 13 tags. Use Psychographics and Project Beale to end the game. Use Snatch and Grab to trash Film Critic if they are hosting Restructured Datapool on it. Keep all of our operations in archives and bounce them into your hand with Clone Suffrage Movement when you need them.]

Nice narrative!

A single Fast Track seems like a really good idea in a 54 card PsychoBeale deck.

This is pretty awesome. Personally, I'd drop 2 puppet masters for a Beale and an NAPD, drop the three museums and one Mumba Temple, and then drop the media blitz. Manhunt is a much stronger current in this setup, and brings you back down to 49 cards. I'm not a fan of museums, even in sensies decks, so slightly biased!
