Just lets you market 'em as 'artisanal' or something. Rich people eat that crap up.

[Oh? What's that he hears? A challenge?]

You know, when I first came here, someone told me I should work for the computer guys, but I don't trust anything that corporate-sounding farther than I can throw it. No wonder they're fuckin' dinosaurs. What's their game? They're just giving the shit away. It's-- [It's suspicious, is what it is.]

Surveillance? Blackmail? There's no way those trashy cameras can record anything on their own. I guess it could be recording audio, but I don't trust that quality to give anyone anything substantial. [This is truly a mystery, and he's quiet for a brief moment as he thinks about it.]

Well, I know computers, and I know explosions, and I know digging too deep for my own good and coming out on the other side covered in weird gross alien gunk. [A pause.] That's a metaphor. Anyway, maybe I'll take a hack at it.

Yeah, man, definitely. The good of the people and everything, right? If they're holding out on shit we can use to make this shit suck less, we deserve that functionality. I'm gonna crack this thing wiiiide open. Hopefully I won't have to resort to the sledgehammer.

[He doesn't seem that hopeful in that case, actually. And speaking of... He waves a hand vaguely.]

...If you happen to, say, accidentally smash the shit out of your device with something that may or may not be sledge and hammery in order to get to the sweet sweet candy inside... do you think they provide replacements?

I was thinking that. They're giving them out to start with, and they're not gonna know how many people are gonna need 'em, so they're gonna have to have some extra lying around. Blame something monster related for the damage, and hey. It's plausible.

[This is the best idea ever, and maybe it'll give him a good glimpse into how these crappy things work in the first place. All the better to hack them with, my dear.]

Maybe it's about time someone tried some reverse engineering. Like an alien hovercraft.
