The show was about a low-life trying to infiltrate a corporation. I find it interesting because all other cyberpunk stories I know will only show the evil CEO hiding at the top of some giant building. It’s rare to find a story that shows the life of the average worker drone. Obviously, it was cancelled after one season.

Yeah this show hit a little close to home. I was working in a biomedical company’s HQ that was the size of a small gated village. This place had dozens of buildings, 5 cafeterias, a couple of fancy parks, and even an elementary school/daycare. The daycare is what really freaked me out. I wouldn’t be surprised if the kids were being taught to narc on their families through being drip fed pro-corporate propaganda.

It taught me we’re not in danger of being in a corporate dystopia because we’re already living it.

Agreed. We really are living in it already.
