Albion
The private military company that turned London into a surveillance state.
Albion is the oppressive private military company of Watch Dogs: Legion. After a series of bombings that the rogue hacker group Zero Day pins on DedSec, the British government contracts Albion to restore order in London and hunt DedSec down. Months later Albion enforces the law without political oversight, superseding the government's control of the city and turning London into a surveillance state with the help of its ctOS network and SIRS, a conglomerate of Britain's intelligence agencies.

Background
Citizens' liberties are severely restricted and their lives constantly monitored, and anyone who questions Albion's methods is convicted or deported to Continental Europe, while organised crime under Clan Kelley rises regardless. Most DedSec members have been arrested or killed by Albion when Sabine finds a new recruit through ctOS and sends them to reactivate the group's safehouse and its AI, Bagley; DedSec then works to free London from Albion's control while hunting the real culprits behind the bombings.
