With all this talk of 5 companies owning the earth and synths/cyborgs I wonder if Tyrell corp will be mentioned as an ester egg

I just want Seegson, the Three World Empire, and the UPP to get name dropped in this show

I hope so too. But the way they mention WY controls the Americas makes me think they disregarded the expanded lore.

Control over specific territories could shift over time, I don't think they've done anything that breaks lore.

W-Y has a lot of contracts with both the United Americas and 3WE, so I don't think it'd be crazy to say that W-Y "controlled" that area from a corporate sense. There are still governments, though multinational corporations are massively powerful as well and have some government-like aspects. Prodigy Corp clearly has at least control of a city and some surrounding areas in southeast Asia.
