* Neo-Luddites - Anti tech/implant - chance of encounter and lethality increases by DV percentage as well (death<unconciousness> in encounter could result in re-spawn with all implants removed)
* Corp Security - character has hot pay-data from a Corp. Corp doesn't like that and tracks down character (death<unconciousness> results in all paydata being wiped and deck being confiscated)

I like the Ally idea, I think this could make for some interesting encounters when you have a team.
Ally has sold out to rival gang/corp and turns on you. Fight Run Negotiate
Ally is targeted by enemies. Defend Ally - Abandon Ally - Sell out Ally (gain yen lose morale)
Ally convulses in implant shock and is inactive til you get medical treatment.
Ally over cranks on stims- Fight -Run - Talk Ally down

- a corp squad asks you if you can provide some info/testimony (I.e. rat some people out)
- same as above, but the corrupt corps threaten you with imprisonment if you don't agree
- someone unexpectedly calls on you to help them with an Operation. You can decline with little or no penalty, but they'll provide a pickup van and will pay you well for the short notice.
- a shooting happens right next to you and the killer disappears into the shadows. If you aren't as stealthy as he was, you gain Heat and possibly lose Rep.
- a brawl between two factions breaks out, or a lot of people are beating up on one guy, or one scary interloper is messing up a bunch of guys. Do something about it or walk past?

What about encounters that raise or lower(especially lower) skills and attributes? Especially if some can be corrected by a trip to the doctor.
Extricating yourself from the rubble of the dome lowers your ability to hold your weapon and manipulate fine machinery. -1 firearms - 1electronics
A viral strike targets your implants. -1 hacking, unable to download data.
A sniper round damages your leg. - 1 athletics, movement halved.
A strange AI rewires your neural pathways. +1 hacking, -1 random skill.

- you see someone suspicious watching your safe house
- as you enter your safehouse and deactivate your alarm you are met by a stranger sitting on your sofa (contract proposition, assassin)
- as above but you find your safehouse wired with explosives (electronics check, to disarm?)

You see an assassination attempt in progress. If you interfere you lose rep with one faction, gain with the other.
Someone tries to attract your attention with the intent of selling you something hot.

Hopefully we'll be able to show you that our vision for Cyber Knights will ensure significant replay value.

PS: Sorry I went off topic. This thread remains only for posts that contain encounter ideas.
IDEA: You encounter people who dislike you for no reason. They throw fruit and pieces of the dome at you.

A representative from mars arrives to inform you that you are being billed for dome repairs following a recent dome throwing incident. While mars understands that you did not remove the piece of the dome, the dome is mars property and you will be held responsible for its further destruction.

*you suddently feel sleepy *you see an unidentified drug on the ground.(use!?) *you throw up(drug 'sickness')(also more like an event,not encounter(think star traders,encounters and accidents)) *heavy soldiers are blockading a house *some people are facing towards a wall,and some soldiers are facing their guns(and heads)towards them *you feel the ground shaking. An earthguake?
