DATA FLOW RATE FOR DATAJACKS

WHAT WERE THEY SMOKING?

P.46 under I/O Speed (Optional Rules)

Simple Action - unlimited transfer speed!
1,000Mp/Combat Turn optional rule

That's fine. But here's the KICKER!

Encrypted/compressed data counts as 2x space for transfer purposes since it "is more complex and requires more error checking".

Please tell me whoever wrote the last sentence was toking on something. I can buy the unlimited/1,000Mp transfer speed but someone needs to study up if they think compressed data or encrypted data is somehow special.

Another mystery solved, but another created.
