Excerpt:
The story of Al Sacui’s battle with Gisol continues to take strange twists and turns that would not seem out of place in one of his surreal animated films. Shortly after contacting the Pennyslvania Attorney General, Sacui began receiving a series of abusive e-mails from two individuals who called themselves “Jane” and “Jay.” The senders urged Sacui to pay Gisol $16,000. On May 27, Sacui found that Gisol.org, where he publishes his journal, had been maliciously redirected to a porn site. An imposter had called Redirection.net to achieve this, quoting his credit card number, according to Sacui.
While Nosepilot continues to operate through its mirror sites, these, too,
have now become the subject of unfriendly attention. On June 8, Megan Abbott,
whose husband Kelly Abbott runs the Nosepilot mirror site Great Jones Street, received an
anonymous phone call from somebody who threatened to hack Great Jones Street if Kelly continued to host Nosepilot.
I'm not sure. I have a feeling that's not entirely correct. To my recollection, 25 years later,
the pirated website may have been not gisol.org but nosepilot.com. $16,000 was $16,243.85.

Operating as a web hosting business and domain registrar between 2000 and 2013, GISOL, Inc.
apparently had a sizable customer base, but was eventually involved in significant scandal,
when many people who claimed to be current and previous customers began voicing concerns in a long,
well-documented list of seemingly incomprehensible indiscretions allegedly made by the operators of that business.
Control the board.

Breaking even sounds good to Al Sacui, a Philadelphia artist who fell victim to his site's popularity.
2025: At the age of 50, I've discovered the impossible. Real life targeting. Multi individual targeting using tools developed from
the study of delusion. It's breathtaking to attempt acknowledging what has happened. It's off the charts. Not previously documented.
History making if true. My thesis? Manipulation via mechanisms learned from delusion.
Organized staging of incriminating video.
2018-2025
We live under an increasingly fast pace of invention.
Are there unintended consequences to technologies new and unfamiliar?
Unacknowledged pitfalls. Weaknesses that are being discovered and exploited.
The cameras piling up everywhere. Harmless. Right?
Singularities in nature.
2021 to 2025
Rule to break? Singularities in nature.
But then again, evident acting might be part of the plan.
Just seems like I was supposed to believe couple of the skits I saw through.
If I had access to the security footage, and it was legible, I could totally point everything out.
Abstract realization #2.

Delusion # 1 (circa 2001): I could put Gisol (Global Internet Solutions) out of business
by making noise. My voice was loud enough.
According to AI, a person who has gone through an intense blurring of performance and reality
..."might experience confusion, mistrust, or even trauma if they discover that their interactions were manipulated"...
I've had my share of getting lost while working out what is going on. Post contract forced signing battle, over the last two weeks,
making order of the mess has not been 100% sane.
Attracting attention only goes so far. Gisol survived my expose by
many years and walked off screen without my help.
It wasn't me who shut them down. I was just one of the many voices.
I'm putting a lot of effort into protecting affected parties. This new case will not be handled
with the wild abandon displayed 25 years ago. I'm pretty sure I know what's what.
The stakes involved are nothing to play around with.
I pledge to protect sources. This time, there's no room for goofing around. There are innocent people wrapped up in this thing.
I gotta do what I can to protect artists and the world not from certain individuals but from the
naive notion that playing along has no consequences. This is an attempt at achieving an inoculation.
I'm not the hide under a rock pretend nothing happened guy.
