I now know what the title of The Penguin Air Force's first album will be ... 8-)

Sullivan:
Unfortunately, there are a lot of bad possibilities. Corpse Witch might have installed monitoring software (or a dead-simple audio recorder) in Bubbles when she did the memory encryption. It's possible she knows everything Bubbles and Faye and Hannelore talked about. It's possible she knows, or could access, everything Bubbles thinks.

It's even possible those "encrypted" memories aren't even there at all.

Somebody:
You know, the obvious possibility, since Station (and his "colleagues" are involved and Station is P.O.ed) is not to try and decrypt the encryption, but to hack Corpse Witch herself. If the key really exists, then she either (a) has it or (b) knows how to get it [if it doesn't, that's also useful info]. And if anyone is capable of getting into and sourcing information from a random AI mind, Station/etc are surely the ones.

St.Clair:
When all you have is a crowbar... from orbit...

BenRG:
Seriously, though, I'm sticking to my theory, first expressed a few weeks back. Bubbles is going to eventually decide that the price that she's paying for these memories is too high. She'll make the conscious choice that, if not for her, at least for the other denizens of the skate park, that she needs to take down Corpse Witch, no matter what the consequences for her.

It's a possibility. However, a lot of that would be strongly dependent on Corpse Witch's personality. She's smug and I suspect that reflects an overconfidence in the power of her leverage. Something like monitoring software would require her to be ready to assume that the first layer of leverage won't work and I'm not sure she'd be able to believe that.

Yeah, that's one of my favourite solutions. Maybe trap her in a virtual maze, the exit of which can only be opened by the Key.

Well, Corpse Witch is screwed. She's a whiff of ionised ozone, argon and helium flashing away at hypersonic velocities from a railgun strike that hasn't realised it yet.

And so would every other AI working at the skate park and potentially anyone else in the immediate area which is probably why Hannelore would prefer not to go that route.

Um... yeah; I think that you were taking me a mite bit too seriously there.
