As you noted, not much action in this chapter, but a lot of buried infodump.
I don't mind infodump. I like background information and lore.
Nice to see Lola's effect on Clarke has lasted over the past five years.
Hmmm... Now Justin DID get the flash drive, right? I'd think, with five years to mull, they'd have put 2+2 together and informed other AIs. Then again, he may have, and the issues Clarke has noticed with the network would be far worse if the megaships weren't already doing things. I dunno.
I can't imagine why, in this scene with Clarke and the kosh, er, koth, I visualize Clarke as Bruce Boxlightner surrounded by candles. Not at all. Total mystery.
Justin did indeed get the memory card, and we'll get to that. It wasn't unhelpful, but as you can tell it didn't really have a major impact. By the time they reached Max-Earth it was quite late in the day: if they'd managed to unearth and broadcast the material 6 months earlier it could have been very different.
I think thanks? I mean the article only exists because of the categorization system. So, I don’t see how you can like the article but dislike the crux of the article. Still, thanks, I think.
Ah, I don't disagree with the categorisation itself, I think that's pretty on point. The category names don't quite click with me - that said, I don't have any particular alternatives to suggest. :)

Fair point. The rogue had plenty of time to set their plans into motion. Especially with the speed of which a quantum AI would work.
