    All the soulless companies that employ temporary tech workers in the US for the mega corporations here just collectively got erections. This is their goal.

      I think the story neuromancer had workers who would show up have their brain chip turn them into meat puppets for 8 hours then they would wake up not knowing what they had done to earn their checks. It was a cheap labor scheme for day workers or prostitutes. I still think that’s really the capitalist goal.
