Using "cyber" as a noun there seems language coded for government. DC has a love of "the cyber" but do technologists use the term that way when not pointing at government?

I wonder if that was a side effect of all the William Gibson style scifi gaining a browser audience.
Originally, the "cyber" in "cyberspace" was clearly from "kybernetic", focusing on the " virtual worlds", AI, mind uploading ideas, etc.
But the actual plot of e.g. Necromancer heavily involves hacking, warfare and all kinds of topics that would be relevant for cybersecurity today.
So maybe "normies" learned to associate "cyber" with hacking instead of the kybernetic concepts it came from.
Cyber: Of, relating to, or involving computers or computer networks (such as the Internet)
This is what I've always understood the word to mean, and how I've always seen it used, for decades.
You left out the part of speech for that entry, which is "adjective"; as in "the cyber marketplace", not "the cyber".
