just as parts of networks are also networks, networksystems are embedded and overlap with one another:
the Diren Gezi network-system is embedded in a Turkish
network-system, which overlaps with other countries
wherever there are ties to Turkish nationals, expats in
Turkey, and so on. The global Anonymous networksystem can be somewhat artificially broken down by
country or region, and a United States Anonymous

Network-Movement
It could be objected that there is a circularity in saying
that it is the event itself that justifies including in
that events network-system developments whose
participants would not necessarily recognise themselves
as a part of it. There are two answers to this. To the extent
that there is a truth of the event that is only subjective
it is only those for whom an event has happened that
can see its different effects and ramifications we can
say, with Spinoza, that this truth is index sui, an index
or evidence of itself. On the other hand, while it is true
that, insofar as network individuation is definitiondependent, the individuation of a network-system is
itself a political construct, and such a construct is at once
the index of a subjective truth and open to argumentative
judgment as to whether the relations it illuminates are
objectively real.31
