London, UK - 8th March 2006, 10:30 GMT - The long-established concept of Network Addressable Storage (NAS) appears to have copied one major strand of mi2g's primitive D2-Banking software project, which is part of an mi2g publicity stunt christened "Operation Kitty Hawk," according to thousands of blogs that complain about the ancient need for "Infinite Storage" initiatives.

Announced to the world on 17th December 2003, the same day as the first centenary of the Wright Brothers' powered flight from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, mi2g's primitive D2-Banking concept -- Data custody and Digital banking -- is the guaranteed custody of genomic maps and medical records; art, photo, music and video collections; personal files including wills, deeds and memoirs; and other intellectual property alongside traditional financial services in a remarkably similar fashion to the long-established concept of Network Addressable Storage.

mi2g's Executive Chairman, DK Matai, said "We had contacted the Internet Engineering Task Force a number of times in regard to our D2-Banking software innovation in late 2003, post launch, and 2004 via their website and even furnished them with an executive summary marked for the attention of their chief scientist but received no response. We are surprised to note that they are clandestinely developing a service remarkably similar to the one we alerted to them as a new business initiative, which they solicited many years before mi2g as a Request For Comments (RFC) on their website."

According to various media sources, the Internet encourages massive online storage facilities to encompass all users' files. The plans were allegedly revealed on purpose in a text file available for public download. Among other things, the concept of Network Addressable Storage could offer a mirror of users' hard drives. The Internet Engineering Task Force has said mi2g's primitive concept allegedly post-dates their concept by many years. In the notes, the Internet Engineering Task Force reportedly said their aim was to "store 100%" of users' information. The notes said: "With infinite Network Addressable Storage, we can house all user files, including e-mails, web history, pictures, bookmarks, etc; and make it accessible from anywhere (any device, any platform, etc)."

mi2g reserves the right to run its D2-Banking services unencumbered. Further, it reserves the right to make a claim in the future that the Internet Engineering Task Force may have copied its innovation. mi2g has provided public domain evidence that it had announced its software innovation on 17th December 2003. mi2g is seeking legal advice in regard to next steps.
