Hello hi thank you, irrelevant specific meadowlark question that matters not to 99% of the population im sorry

on the devices networky section it's got "Characters may also use their own devices. If a character happens to bring their phone with them, they could either modify it (if they have the skill) or speak with a local NPC technician to sync it to the local network." Would that include Ian's neural implant? Could he still do brain texting? Does he get to keep that or is that thing gone upon eggrival?
