Edit out all the deeply awful neoliberalism, which feels straight out of CNN and MSNBC's worst reporting, and this would be a fantastic book. Hope for such a version in the future, or just ask an AI to do it for you.

Its interesting to see gibson circle back on his hit - this is very similar to neuromancer, but more grounded, and somehow set last year, or a few years ago even.

A great concept that seems to be a world building experiment and setup for the next story.
