Can you bother to look at the existing threads which will tell you all that we currently know about the 4 (of 6) that have been revealed.

Protocol 1 Be committed to the mission, whatever the mission.
Protocol 2 Leave the future in the past.
Protocol 3 Don’t save a life. Don’t take a life.
Protocol 4 ?
Protocol 5 Resume your host’s life.
Protocol 6 In the absence of a clear course of action, you await instruction from the director via messenger or traveler.
I would think #3 would be extremely difficult for those that jumped into cops.

or FBI agents. But then there's protocol 5: resume your host's life, so maybe if you kill someone as part of your host's job, it doesn't violate protocol 3?
shareDefinitely, it would be impossible, as part of the job, he would be in situations where he would likely have to save lives. It seems strange they'd put him in an FBI agent's body, knowing saving lives is apart of the job, yet it violates protocol #3.
shareWas #4 about different teams not interacting?

Death is the road to awe.
#6 is about teams only interacting if it is part of a mission.

I haven't heard anyone talk about protocol 4 yet. When MacLaren went to the blonde woman to ask her advice, they only brought up protocol 6, so I assumed that "wait for instructions" means don't talk to other teams while you're waiting, but that's kind of a stretch I think.
Maybe I missed a reference to #4, or maybe the "don't interact" is really a separate protocol and they just haven't said what number it is? It definitely seems to be a major violation...
Protocol 1 Be committed to the mission, whatever the mission.
They're listed on the Showcase website...
1. The mission comes first.
2. Never jeopardize your cover.
3. Don’t take a life; don’t save a life, unless otherwise directed.
4. Do not reproduce.
5. In the absence of direction, maintain your host’s life.
6. No inter-team/deep web communication except in extreme emergencies.

Did you just make up #4?
shareThey are all listed and explained in the Showcase site the OP listed:

Protocol #4 makes a lot of sense, but as far as I remember, was never mentioned in the episodes, maybe it was lost in editing.
Or just as part of a pr stunt to get people curious about the show and going to the website for more shows to watch.
shareYes, 4 was never mentioned, and neither was 1 explicitly although it might have been inferred. Now, as a take-home assignment, we should come up with our additional protocols #7 plus as interested viewers.
7. Accessing the deep web must always require two people looking at the monitor. This would avoid Grace and her "end run" strategy to fix things.
8. The presence of bacon voids protocol 1 until it has all been consumed.

I'm SUPER surprised that Protocol 4 was never mentioned, when I looked it up on the site I was expected that one of the episodes by the end of the season would have it--especially with Marcy and her social worker (Dave?). And Mac will have to shut down his wife's desire to have kids forever.
I'm almost positive these will come up in Season 2, but I don't want to wait that long!
Do not reproduce would make sense. Dead people should not have children.
On the other hand, if one resumes the life of a dead person, interactions could be made that would not allow offspring of a spouse or other family member.
Actually, resuming a dead persons life would have many implications that would ripple through time much more than the butterfly effect.
