Technology is becoming ever more invasive in the hands of corporatists in business and government. Tyrants prefer robots to free spirits. Research may soon bring cyborgs from Sci-Fi to reality.
Scientists are working for corporatists to create "enhanced" humanoid chimeras to replace us with more efficient and servile genetically engineered and micro-chipped workers and soldiers, like Star Trek's Borg Collective.
