    That's because it does the install, instead of just doing the fetch. Obviously, installing updates w/out admin understanding that he's taking risks, is a foolish thing to do.

    Uhh, drugs' molecular affects, directly or indirectly, your physical and mental levels. See morphine versus heroin and why they act the way they do. The fiction is the latter part of the process.

    Snow Crash was about system interaction creating a fictitious environment. Not tapping into your adrenal gland. That environment, your belief aka imagination, leads to the experience. Snow Crash's VR environment was heavily visual and, at most, about external stimulation.

    Snow Crash is also 10 years old or so. Good book, but nowadays, you need mental tapes, nano probes, molecular fingers pressing stim spots, and neuro implants to delivery a next gen fictive experience, as you put it.
