Reply #31: CyberNet [View All]

[stirringstill]

Let me take a stab. "The Fisher Angle" had just started being discussed here at DU and these posts involved a story about Piotr Blass who alledgely had knowledge of election manipulation efforts taking place in connection to BayPoint Schools in FLA. These schools are linked to Mel Sembler and Block who are certainly close to the Bush circle.

CyberNet was first invoked in relation to this story by someone on BBV named Auditors. I think on that day the FBI raided a company called CyberNet and Auditors said that CyberNet was connected because it was in Michigan and Blass had ties to Michigan. He also mentioned Sembler and Choicepoint. When I saw FBI and Blass I got a little excited but the post didn't say how they were connected other than Michigan and at the time the only connection I knew Blass had to Michigan was that he went to school there back in the 70's. This essentially meant that there was no connection. The other thing odd was that he mentioned Choicepoint. The previous day I had written a post on DU about the Fisher Angle in which I digressed into a discussion about Choicepoint, but I didn't say Choicepoint was connected to the Fisher Angle. I was only bringing up some details that Palast had unearthed about the 2000 election and the fact that Choicepoint got a windfall of post 9-11 contracts. Auditors threw Choicepoint out there as if it too was connected with Blass and Sembler and Baypoint and CyberNet. I suspected that Auditors saw the FBI raid and scanned the DU threads and sloppily pulled out some proper names and said they were all connected. But, perhaps Auditors was leaving clue? We now know better, but I think people initially ran with CyberNet because of the FBI raid. Then the head of the company shot himself. It took on a life of its own in part because there are multiple CyberNets, some direct links to the Defense Depart and some to the porn industry. Fascinating but not necessarily related to the election.
