I'd imagine most of the people signing up haven't actually looked into it and are envisioning Matrix shit or something. Like the thousands of people who signed up for Mars One

Matrix shit? Like being forced to be a drone in a monotonous VR world while their bodies are harvested for energy until they fail? Doesn't really seem like an aspirational situation but I guess there must be a few Cyphers out there ..
I meant like downloading kung fu knowledge to your brain
Idk... Seems pretty good if it means I can live in the 90's again.
If they're thinking at all... it's likely less drone, more "leather trench coat, sleek sunglasses, uzis, katanas, and bullet time"
