True. Not to mention that the Mafia is non-existent in most of the United States. I think they should have rebooted Cyberpunk, the way that DC Comics does. I mean it has been decades since Cyberpunk products were coming out. Rather than pick up from where they left off, they could have simply rebooted it all so that the world is closer to what it is now.

In the underworld it would have meant that the biggest players on the world stage would have been the Chinese Triads  (especially China and Southeast Asia) and the Russian Mafiya (especially the former Soviet Union). The Mafia would be big in Europe but in the United States, outside of NY City and Chicago, small time. It would have been the Latino underworld that would be dominating the US criminal underworld (Mexican Cartels, the Chicano prison gangs, and Latino street gangs). They would hae also added the white prison gangs, black street gangs, white biker gangs, and Asian gangs to the mix.
