Re: Schlock Mercenary VII: A T.A.D. Too Much Dialogue These Days
Not Petey, no.
Someone like him.
But Petey or not Petey, I like the idea that there is some knowledge in that there's some knowledge in that databank the galaxy really shouldn't touch.
(I read a series once where something like that happened.
The resident precursor race got into a civil war about their tech.
One side developed a weapon that would destroy anyone who would abuse the knowledge behind the tech.
What happened next should be easy to guess.*)
Not saying that will happen there, but Ennesby’s approach still seems the best for now.
*Right. They were the first targets of their new security system. Because it determined everyone getting to that tech-level would inevitably abuse it and endanger existence.
Making things worse: Simply knowing about the weapon (and the technology behind it) could attract it.
