Prime Runs (Shadowrun)

[Crow]

I only played a short campaign in 4th unfortunately, but my solution to the security issue was to turn wireless off on everything that could get me killed if someone suddenly hacked it and run it on skinlink instead. Have a commlink, sure, but don't link it into things like...your cybereyes, your smartlinks, etc. Or have a second one that runs that and has no wireless, just operates on skinlink, while you use your backup one to access outside information and the like.

I understand that, but my problem with the system is why the hell on god's green earth would anyone ever run any of those things in wireless mode to begin with??? It's like they were just looking for "cool" things for hackers to do without thinking too deep into it.
