Event: Malware

MALWARE
Those who took part in the seance and had their tablets drained of power will find them working again on the morning of day 398. They're definitely still very low on power, with their screens dim, but they're working, so it's probably a good idea to exchange information via the network, PMs, and such while you can. Interestingly, anyone who took part in the seance who has access to shadownet will find they can't access it at the moment. Tapping on the icon doesn't do anything. Maybe it's a power issue...?

Meanwhile, those who happen to use the network and see any post or reply made by someone who participated in the seance after the seance will have their tablets rapidly drained of power for several hours (if drained in the morning, until day, if drained during the day, until night, and if drained during the night, until the next morning). Whatever happened to their tablets, it looks like it's spread to yours, too. You don't have to actually interact with the posts or comments to get infected: just having it on your screen is enough. Anyone infected who has shadownet loses access to it, as well.

After day 398, @ADMIN makes a message as follows: Malware detected. Network infection quarantined. Please take any infected tablets to a licensed technician. Of course, that's going to be pretty hard to do... Still, no more infections take place after this message. Those who were infected have their tablets working again, but in constant low power mode.

does the "see any post or reply made by..." bit apply to shadownet or just the normal network? Is it new comments/posts or any?

for those who have shadownet and DON'T get infected, does it still work normally?

Do other apps work? e.g., the Eye App or the Filterhax app?

What happens if a character whose tablet is infected loses their tablet? Does the replacement have the same problems, or is it fixed?
