Trivia
Vienna is the base of locations for future Global police (especially Net Police) in several Cyberpunk authors' works. William Gibson based the "Turing Police" based there, and Bruce Sterling also had such an organisation, colloquially known as the "Vienna Heat". It might be that some Runner prone to making viruses in 2020 thought it amusing to create a virus named after the Vienna cops. |
|
In France the number 22 is very closely tied to the police. There are a lot of expressions on the cops using the #22: "22!" when you see a cop, "papa 22" (daddy 22) on the highway to call cops waiting with a radar... Sometimes 22 is used to refer to the IQ of the standard cop. |
