Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Net is a 1995 techno-thriller film starring Sandra Bullock and directed by Irwin Winkler.Angela Bennett (Bullock) is an unassuming, nerdy computer analyst and reclusive loner who works from home, helping her company debug games and other software. She becomes embroiled in an intricate conspiracy when her co-worker sends her a disk of security software called "Gatekeeper", containing a secret backdoor into various government agencies, hospitals and any computer system Gatekeeper supposedly protects. This makes Angela a target of the Praetorians, a dangerous group of hackers who use their manipulation of everything online to kill or ruin the lives of anyone who threatens them.Bennett becomes a wanted fugitive when her identity is replaced with that of a known criminal, her credit cards rendered null, her car stolen and her house sold without her knowledge. With everyone believing she is someone she is not, and a charming assassin on her tail, Bennett can only count on her former therapist, Dr. Alan Champion (Dennis Miller), to protect her and ensure her mother, who suffers from Alzheimer's, is safe. It will take all of her skill and wits to uncover the real identity and motives of the Praetorians and bring down the conspiracy before they have undetectable access to every major computer system.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A TV series adaptation aired on USA Network for one season (1998–99), turning the film's plot into an episodic narrative pitting runaway Angela against the Praetorians, a cyber-terrorist organization that makes her a target of the FBI by swapping her identity with one of the 10 Most Wanted List. A Direct to Video sequel (in actuality the same premise under different circumstances), The Net 2.0, was made in 2006, about a female computer analyst who gets her identity stolen while in Istanbul. | |

Wrongful Accusation Insurance | |
The Net (1995) / int_2fbab42f | comment |
Wrongful Accusation Insurance: An insurance policy is provided courtesy of the film's villains. While Angela commits a few crimes in her quest to her life back, she does so while her identity has been switched with one Ruth Marx — the Ruth Marx that ends up dead along with Jack Devlin at the computer fair. Once Angela undoes the identity swap, it's easy to imagine the police assigning most or all of Angela's criminal acts to Ruth and closing the case. | |

Knowing he would do this, Angela puts a disk in the computer containing a virus she found early in the movie, which Devlin triggers when he hacks the FBI, destroying all elements of Gatekeeper. | |

Adult Fear: Alan dies due to a medical error. Even worse, it's not because of an error or negligence on a doctor or nurse's part, it's because the bad guys have tampered with hospital records to list him as a diabetic, leading the nurse to give him a dose of insulin that she genuinely thought he needed, but in a normal person, was fatal. | |

Xanatos Gambit | |
The Net (1995) / int_c32ff031 | comment |
Xanatos Gambit: Jeff Gregg engineered all the cyber attacks and made it seem like this was the work of pranksters, in order to get the US Government to buy his anti-virus software to protect their system. The software was purposely engineered with a backdoor, giving Gregg the access he previously had to steal. He could still get in before, but this way is undetectable and easier and he made some money. Whether or not the software was bought, he still had the fruits of the initial attack. | |

Hope Spot | |
The Net (1995) / int_c3c18143 | comment |
Hope Spot: The FBI Agent friend Dr. Champion mentions early in the film turns out to be a Praetorian plant (if he was the man Champion was talking about to begin with). Angela goes from hopeful to despairing to full-on furious within the space of a few (unnecessary) repeats of him asking "did you made a copy of the disk?". | |

Rage Breaking Point | |
The Net (1995) / int_c819533b | comment |
Rage Breaking Point: When the FBI Agent that is a friend of Champion unmasks himself as a Praetorian plant because he keeps insisting on asking Angela whether or not she copied the disk (after she already told him it's been destroyed), Angela finally has enough and after a short rant about how she's fed up, she struggles for control of the car with him, making them crash and killing him, and then runs off to search a way to destroy the conspiracy. | |

Cyberbullying: Angela becomes marked for murder when she discovers that the Gatekeeper anti-virus software also allows back-door access to any system running it. When a hired hitman fails to kill Angela, the evil Praetorians tamper with Angela's identity, making her into a wanted fugitive with no credit and no finances. | |
