Comms Implant

You have an implanted ICD (see Communications and Computing ) which is by default connected only to your auditory cortex and vocal chords, allowing you to receive voice comms privately and inaudibly. If you also have an augmented reality system , you gain full ICD functionality including video and text messaging, app usage, and so on as if you were connected via a cyberlink .

Hacking. If hacked, the implant shuts down and stops working until it is rebooted, which requires 1 minute. During this time, it may not be used for any sort of communication or application functionality, but you are otherwise unaffected.
