In Response To: Re: An addendum, and an apology--- (Andrew Nagy)

: What about Acme Station's "Bernhard was constantly having me do
: redirect-subterfuge work back on Mars,"

Interesting choice of words. Let's go back to DT/2:

SEARCH HEADING: RAMPANCY



"It is a side effect of Rampancy that AIs generally become
more aggressive and more difficult to affect by SUBTERFUGE. [emph. mine]

Anybody have any thoughts on "subterfuge?"

Anyway, both terms you refer to suggest that

•Durandal, upon becoming Rampant in Tau Ceti, got access to Strauss' private logs. Indeed the excerpt of Strauss' log that we read on BOLFDD/2 is meant for his eyes only, as it divulges sensitive information regarding the presence of the ten cyborgs in addition to betraying his contempt for the UESC, not something you'd want floating around.

•Since it would be unlikely that Strauss would communicate his feelings, or in this case fears, of his ongoing cybernetic work to Durandal, it makes sense to assume the latter, once again, somehow got access to Strauss' personal logs.
