I've been thinking for a while as to what the true motivation of the Horizon Corporation is and i can't find anything that really sticks. They seem too good to be good guys though. I mean at best they're Knights Templar, well intentioned but fanatical. However in a world of very dark grey/black morality they just don't quite fit in. Horizon group is almost too perfect for my tastes.

The obvious answer to the problem is that Horizon is simply using the mass media to control people and sway their opinions in favor of the corporation and it's agenda and way from anything that could be potentially damaging to the company. But none of this is definite of course because we have no real informational information on Horizon. All we really know is that their media gurus and that they recently took a seat on the Corporate Court, and what does that tell us? Nothing

I opened this thread to prompt discussion on the topic and i'd welcome any theories.
