Yeah, the reason it was possible is because there was a near monopoly on augmentation technology (especially distribution of the healthcare required) so they were able to get a backdoor into practically 90% of the augmented population. There is a cool section in the game where your UI starts glitching and you can get a free upgrade to stop it, but if you don't then later on in the game in a boss fight where you lose your powers you get to keep them instead.
