"FBI Agents today shut down the infamous Uplink Corporation"

 

 

Uplink is busted wide open by the Feds and the key runners go to jail. Suddenly the Net and all those Uplink Agents are on their own - a power vacuum forms. New hacker groups form and try to take the place of Uplink, offering their own gateway systems. Many alternatives spring up, each offering a different service.

But the Feds are not satisfied with Uplink alone. When they took down the company they also got hold of a list of all the hackers in the world, and they are taking them out one at a time. You have to defend yourself from this - but you must also help to rebuild the Uplink Community as fast as possible to counter this new Government offensive.
