Are you reading this on the street? In a store? In the metro? When was the last time you checked your neural sockets?

The picksocket plague is worse than it’s ever been. The NCPD received hundreds of complaints in their last cycle from residents who reported having shards stolen from their neural sockets. How can you protect yourself? We’ve got you covered!

Thefts largely go uninvestigated due to the police’s prioritization of violent crime, which has left picksockets feeling increasingly bold. Exploits used to hack our neuralware are widely available on the black market, so many thieves have shifted focus from our pockets to our sockets. One brief moment of inattention and your private information is flying from your neck into someone’s sticky fingers. The NCPD admits tracking such thieves is difficult and a waste of resources, which is why we’re here to help keep your info safe with 3 options to suit any budget.

1. Change your settings to ensure you receive notifications any time a shard is removed from a neural port. Unfortunately, this approach leads to a high number of false positives when you’re fiddling with your own neuralware.
2. Invest in new sockets. Several new models on the market already have built-in safety and authorization measures to keep shards locked in tight. But if you’re pinching every enny, this solution could break the bank.
3. Duct tape. Slap on a square of that and those shards aren’t going anywhere. On a budget? Bad with tech? No regard for style? Then this is the option for you!
