We have a similar ruling regarding lifestyles that anyone can have any kind of lifestyle, it's just about where. You can have a pimped out warehouse in a lawless territory and pay gang protection money.I'm loving all your ideas about the consequences of burned SINs, and you were right about groceries etc. being a cost incorporated into the lifestyle. I guess my point along that was that your SIN has to be maintained in a way that emulates life. Your SIN goes out for dinner, travels etc. So if your runner didn't broadcast that SIN for a number of months that'd be a problem right?
Like I said, the Shadowbank could probably emulate life on your SIN for you. It's all part of the money-laundering scheme....
1) I always thought the biometric information on fake SINs were yours, and you had your fixer and manufacturer have it match to you, though I guess it could be the other way around if you just buy an identity and have a bunch of bio material... Which is scary.
I don't know if this is exaggeration or an old piece of lore, but I've heard people say that an R1 fake SIN might have the biometrics of a chicken. So, no, it's not your biometric information on the fake SIN.
2) What sort of biometric testing would you do for someone with cyber eyes and arms?
On the most basic level, you check height, metatype, ethnic group, sex and other such basics. At the high end, you check genetic material, and somewhere in between you do facial scans.
