The Cybernetic News Service Suffering from ads?

Seeing as no other CyCon members have suggested anything, I guess I'll start the dialogue for CyCon's News Service. The only thing I can come up with right now is the Daily Data Download (DDD, or 3D for you graphic programmers), except it probably won't be daily. Any other suggestions?

Plus, we can hack the other news networks' public sites when we want to publish some planet-wide news! No need to expend resources for our own. Much more efficient!

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Seeing as there is some misunderstanding here, the news service would not actually be in this form. This is merely a translation of terms for you without cybernetic implants. The actual news service would be a direct data download into each of our brains. Much like how our leader, Aki-Zeta Five talks when dealing with other factions... we do not actually use primitive verbal communication to converse amongst ourselves. Instead, we transmit our thoughts and ideas directly to one another.

And, in responce to your query as to whether those were banned words...

Hm, that sounds interesting... That technology may be very useful for the hive... Just for "security reasons", of course.

The Ministery of Information and the Ministery of State Security would be please to meet your trade representatives in order to negotiate about the conditions...

Due to the nature of our two factions and the ultimate goal of our two factions (That, of course, being perfection) it seems only logical that the CNS and the University news agency initiate a co-operative center in both of our capitals to ensure that our citizens are well informed of current technological advancements, military movements, geo-political events, among other things.

A relationship with the Hivonian news agency, "Pravada", would seem illogical as their goals and ours cannot co-exist peacefully.

Friends Cyborgs! We applaud your courageous experiment into the nature of conciousness and mind. While we, as researchers, feel it's better to use lab rats than to be ones, we will nevertheless take the opportunity to carefully evaluate the exemple you set before us. Taking part of your news service will, I expect, be rewarding as well as enlightening.

Now, if you excuse me, I have to get back to the cloning vats. I hear our new, improved Bigger Boob Britney is coming online any moment now.

You speak of efficiency and yet your faction will most likely employ the so called “democratic” form of government. True efficiency can only be achieved though a People’s Democratic Dictatorship.
