VIFF: The Net

This is not the film with Sandra Bullock in it; this is a film about LSD, the CIA, the Internet, and Ted Kaczynski. At some point, the film makers go off their nut and start forming a conspiracy theory about how the CIA's mind control experiments were behind the Unabomber attacks.

Ted Kaczynski, LSD, ARPAnet, hippies, CIA, blah blah blah; a waste of time.

The film maker weaves his own net of conspiracies that apparently is doing nothing more than trying to connect the CIA's LSD experimentations to The Unabomber. That's what it would appear to be anyhow... I mean, as a computer geek, I found the bits with SAGE and early computer types fun, but tying them and their developments in technology to the Unabomber was lame.
