As a living card game, Android: Netrunner is played with decks of cards. Each card has its own title, text defining its abilities, and stats, generally depending on the type of card that it is.
Self-referential Language[]
If a card's text has its own title in it, that title refers to that specific copy of the card and not to any other copy of the card, except where otherwise noted.

| Unless otherwise noted, a card with text that refers to its own card title only refers to itself and does not refer to other copies of cards with that title. |
Memory[]
Cards do not retain memory of their previous states if uninstalled and reinstalled. Each time any copy of a card becomes active, it is considered to be a new instance of that card.
