Neural relays are devices used in the 51st century to let people send "Thought-Mail" by Point-And-Think Technology. Sometimes, if someone dies, their consciousness may still leave an imprint in the neural relay. Using its comms device, the Data Ghost is able, for a short time, to talk to other people, before deteriorating, starting to repeat itself. While usually lasting only a few minutes, Anita mentions that her Grandfather 'ghosted' for an entire day and kept talking about his shoe-laces.

Anita was killed by the Vashta Nerada, but had no obvious Data Ghost, as the Vashta Nerada had learned to talk through the neural relay.
