  They probably meant cyberpunk, since they mentioned the combination of techology and social impact. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberpunk https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberpunk

    Cyberpunk is an aesthetic, Cypherpunk is sociopolitical. Thematically there is very little different between cyberpunk and steampunk.
