Would there still be primitive hunter-gatherer/agrarian/pastoral cultures on the remote fringes of a /cyber/ world? What would be the relationship between the tribesmen and the megalopolitans? And how would the introduction of /cyber/ tech affect cultural traditions and intertribal warfare?

this reminds me of the movie Code 46 and the people who lived outside the city walls

i would imagine it would affect the primitives like the coke bottle in The Gods Must Be Crazy. they might worship the fallen cellphone every time it rings, and upon discovering how to answer, believe the telemarketer was some type of prophet

in all seriousness tho, we are headed toward a polarizing future with little to no middle class. the 1% will have everything life extension tech, super-surveillance, walled cities and high-tech militarized security while the proletariat will starve under the glow of a flatscreen pumping out only what they want you to know, mainly that you should be thankful to serve them and eat the scraps from their table. these proletariat would use tech to attack the system and find better ways just to make ends meet. hacking in one way or another will most likely be mandatory for survival

its gonna be like a real life hunger games or maybe the stack and pack of dredd

Most likely. Just look at the modern world: We've got billionaires putting their cars into space, ordinary citizens carry around rectangles that have access to all human knowledge, we're editing our genes, we've had working jetpacks, we get pictures from the surface of other planets and it doesn't even make the news, and we're on the cusp of autonomous vehicles becoming the norm.

Then we've got a tribe of retards on an island in India that haven't discovered fire yet.
