This is probably an artefact of the cyberpunk movement which helped popularise cyborgs back in the 1980s, but cyborgs and conspiracies go together like peanut butter and jelly. If youre not working for or are part of the conspiracy, youre either one of its many victims or the person who has to stop it. Normally, this wouldnt be too big of a problem, except when you remember that as a cyborg, theres a decent chance that one of the companies that made the parts in your body is controlled by the conspiracy. This tends to end with the conspirators messing with your mind. Then again, brain hacking seems to be pretty common in cyborg-heavy settings, so its not really all that special. Just suck it up and get on with it. Even if youre lucky enough to not get your mind hacked (or overcome it), you get to face either a private military force with incredibly strong weapons and cyborgs or eldritch creatures that want to destroy all life as you know it. If youre spectacularly unlucky, the conspirators have been watching you most or the whole time youve been trying to figure out whats going on. But hey, it could be worse. You couldve been created by the conspiracy and had your life manipulated by tons of people you knew and loved. And yet theres something even worse than this.
