I appreciate what this pr is doing, however I think this is a bad way of going about it. Not only does it not really fit RD, I feel like the way this would play out is the RD giving out implants to all of the scientists and themselves, which seems way worse then the current arrangement. That being said, even though silicons can use the pda channel, this feels eh as someone can easily get an implant and just stay silent and the silicons would have no clue that there's someone in that channel. Not to mention silicon channel is silicons thing and a very unique aspect of there identity, and for it to be easily given to others just isnt great. To me the changes towards the robotics implant should be aimed to reducing availability, giving silicons more info, and giving silicons more control.
I think a simple material increase would accomplish the first one, maybe uqill? I think a message for when someone gets access to the silicon channel be this new borgs or humans would help a lot with the middle one, and just seems nice overall, this means that someone cant just join the channel, stay silent, and snitch when the borgs use this channel for criming. Finally, I think giving the AI the option to disable/enable the ability for people (one option for specific people, other option for everyone) to use the machine implant would be good. This would be a semi quiet thing initially, but the moment someone tries to use the machine implant they'll naturally notice that the message fails to send, meaning they'll get suspicious of the AI being rogue.
