…hah
You’re entirely right. Indeed, an effort was made in Semiki to transmit Sansha’s Nation activity to Clade Svarog, intended to see if Special Operation Troika Kresnik Svarog would take interest in the investigation and extirpation of Nation forces sieging the system.
The inclusion of a True Slave Decryption Node for the purpose of decrypting Sansha-sourced data for dissemination appeared to have been in grave error, however, as when the forces of Clade Svarog arrived in system, they instead joined in attacking alongside the Sansha for a time - a presumed consequence of “corruption” - and ended up self-immolating their fleet to stop its spread.
The knowledge that Nation’s slavemind hivelink was able to corrupt Narodnya of Clade Svarog was extremely surprising - and the consequent changing of Semiosis Console interfaces to an encrypted form/format may indeed have been related, especially given that the only encrypted one we’ve encountered has been from Svarog. Despite the error of this undertaking, I’m happy to see such a vulnerability was ensured to not be likely to be intentionally exploited in the future.
