The Cogito Virus is a virus that affects androids. It makes them
hostile to humans. It was created by a rogue android that has been labeled Archos. The virus is believed to be spread by satellite signals that target the processors of other androids. It is believed to be able to affect humans that have had their brains augmented, though this is uncertain. The first known instances of the virus were in Houston, Texas, though it now spans the globe.
