If you want to stay safe, you have to keep moving. The megacorps will never stop looking for you once they’ve made you a target. #shimmer hasn’t slept in the same bed two nights in a row for half a year now. The initial job was simple enough; breach the fire walls and take everything she could find off a server in a shipping container buried in the desert. She’d actually had to go there in physical person, so remote and unconnected was the data repository.

She’s been leaving them messages in the hope that they’ll be interested in talking.
