The archive.org archives of kolyma.net also coincide with this theory, as there are no more archives in 2005 after kuz inherits the company, and they dont resume until 2 years later, and at that point, the listed adress in the whois is in Omsk, which is where kuz lived at the time. MagNet refers to magadan-net, kolyma seems to be either a rebranding or a new company, though im not sure. But kuz did keep the original "mag-net" logo on the site even after the transfer.

Another interesting thing is that the whois says it belonged to "Hao Lanqing" after the transition, an alias kuz often uses. Some also speculate that this is his real name, and Yuri Kuznetsov is a pseudonym.

Maybe i got a little off-topic here, but i find this all very interesting. Its also weird how a literal internet services provider has turned into a shell company to further his little imageboard/textboard empire.

Also, as of 2018, it no longer says "Internet Services Provider" on the front page, rather "Internet Services Portal"
