Not really, shadowrunning was typically defined in the beginning of
doing the secret (and deniable) dirty work for and against corporations.
Just committing a crime is not a shadowrun although most shadowruns are
illegal in some way. Just the fact that the corporations are not the sole
force behind current shadowruns shows how far the game has gone.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
