Meatware 81

IDs are indeed transferable. you can sell yours to anyone you want, but that would leave yourself without ID of course. When someone dies the ID expires, so it would need to be sold while the person is still alive… Of course, if you die after that it won't matter anymore. :U
Sidenote: Most people don't have first and last names in this world. Only a “call name” (as in, what your mother called you) and the ID number. ZAM-ZETA is the name of this colony, ZAM is the company who discovered & claimed the planet to be terraformed. Yeah this does not take place on earth. Probably not anywhere near earth.
The (inf.) next to male means infertile. Servant Model is the proper name for meatware products. Had he been born as as citizen, it would say citizen.

There could be a huge influx of unauthorized Meatware machines if they were programmed to be “very fertile”.

Now that would be a very different kind of comic. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

"Who do you think you are?" clearly has a very literal meaning on that world... 😉 I like all these cool, intricate details about how their society works, respectively (in true cyberpunk style) doesn't.
