the future has imploded into the present .
with no nuclear war the new battlefields are people’s minds and souls .
megacorporations are the new governments .
the computer generated info-domains are the new frontiers .
though there is better living through science and chemistry we are all becoming cyborgs .
the computer is the new cool tool .
though we say all information should be free it is not .
information is power and currency in the virtual world we inhabit .
so mistrust authority .
cyberpunks are the true rebels .
cyberculture is coming in under the radar of ordinary society .
an unholy alliance of the tech world and the world of organized dissent .
welcomed to the cybercorporation .
cyberpunks .
