** He was too busy betraying people and preaching SHODAN's word. Besides, he probably didn't consider the Hacker to be a threat... by the time the Hacker has proven to be a threat, it's a bit late to forewarn SHODAN about him. And that's assuming that Diego was 100% loyal to SHODAN; it's possible there was a part of him still resisting her even as he licked her metaphorical boots.

** It might have genuinely slipped his mind. He clearly knows who you are by the time you meet him, but the Hacker's long coma made him a non-factor for SHODAN's coup, so Diego either forgot or quietly decided to keep him around in case there was some way of getting him to shut down his boss, making him the undisputed king of Citadel. Of course, either way SHODAN would have found out and been very displeased between Medical and the Exec Deck.

* SHODAN does not know about the Hacker because Diego wiped the records ... but Diego then became SHODAN's loyal servant. Why did Diego never bring it up?

** Cyber security worker here: that kind of coding takes time, it's not something you can just whip up at a moment's notice. And according to the remake, there were men with GUNS in the room with him. Given how relatively simple we see disabling the ethical restraints is, it's likely Diego would have had the Hacker shot if he went out of scope.

* Why did the Hacker not code in ''at least one'' killswitch or shutdown or backdoor when he was disabling all the ethical constraints? Surely he had to know how freaking dangerous an unleashed SHODAN would be, and the first thing any seasoned hacker does after getting into a system '''is to make sure you have a way back in'''. So why not have some kind of emergency shutdown coded into SHODAN at the very basic level - a code phrase you can yell into the loudspeaker, a 24/7 wifi network with admin access, a QR code to be held up and automatically scanned by a security camera, ''something.''

** One of her logs says that she admires his contempt for humanity, and others talk about using him as her prophet. So she did specifically choose to use him for emotional reasons (to the extent that she has emotions.)

** Also, FIFTEEN: you aren't SHODAN's only problem until nearly the end of the game, at which point you've already scored a couple of major wins against her, most notably dealing with Beta Grove. Anna Parovski's party is still a going concern for SHODAN until you reach the Flight Deck.
