Cyberdyne Systems, Wayland-Yutani Corporation, Tyrell Corporation, or Arasaka Corporation? Something else?
Nah nothing that cool. A megacorp that has so much influence that it doesn’t need a military of its own. It knows everything it needs to about everyone, can sway public opinion as it wishes, and will continue to enmesh itself into every aspect of private and public life. It produces no products. We are the products, and we are the consumers.
And it’s already here: Google, Meta, whatever Elon Musk is doing idk.
Sometimes the companies they subcontract, named something boring and innocuous like Isolace Data Systems or Wimblo Digital or some shit, fucks up spectacularly.
Like they’ll just have 400gb Excel spreadsheet called all_meta_usernames_and_passwords.xlsx stored in the company’s shared intranet and then some dude guesses the WiFi password was WimbloDigital2024 and leaks it to whoever.
