Is it good or bad that we don’t have the cyborg stuff?

The Cyborg stuff is cool, but unfortunately we have subscription models, anti-repairability DRM, unblockable ads, and "we'll fix it with the DLC" software model, and for-profit health care well established before those become a reality

You can then literally charge people an arm and a leg
