Do you have any evidence that isn't based on a video game plot?

Obviously not, since a corporation has never actually bought a city like the proposed Google buyout of Detroit. I was making a glib remark about possible downsides to a Google city.

So in that spirit: Yes, in TV shows like Deadwood and Eureka.

Yes. Robocop.

We're already Deus Ex.
