❗️INSTRUCTIONS: Read the selection and start answering questions.
📄 Renegade hackers, gritty urban landscapes, and oppressive mega corporations are all hallmarks of the cyberpunk genre. Technology is central as well. These films and novels explore dystopian near futures. They also often draw on traditions of film noir and detective fiction. While cyberpunk celebrates Internet-like virtual spaces, it also considers the moral ambiguity involved in technological advancement. As a result, the future cyberpunk presented are equal parts frightening and exhilarating. 📃
