WASHINGTON - TelAve -- — Federal whistleblower David Koch has released new evidence implicating Cogent Communications in the concealed theft and deployment of an entire data center model built by Fiber Network Solutions, Inc. (FNSI), a company Cogent fraudulently acquired in 2003.
  • "The five colocation centers I bought from you are profitable." —   Dave Schaeffer, Cogent CEO, to Kyle Bacon
  • "Cogent didn't have a product to sell for these data centers that they bought from PSI." —   Kyle Bacon, former Cogent CIO
  • "I took our data center model from FNSI — from FiberNet — packaged it up... and I said, 'Go sell the shit out of this,' because no one else is doing it." —   Kyle Bacon, former Cogent CIO
  • "I didn't build anything new. I just took what we had at Fibernet..." —   Kyle Bacon, former Cogent CIO
The full new release includes:

A recorded March 13, 2024 call in which Kyle Bacon confirms that CEO Dave Schaeffer instructed him to deploy FNSI's pre-existing model across Cogent's failing PSINet assets — which had been losing over $150,000 per month.

A 2001 FNSI brochure, archived by the Internet Archive, which proves FNSI's infrastructure was already fully deployed and serving clients long before Cogent's acquisition of PSINet's distressed bankrupt remnants in 2002.
  • Confirmation that Cogent's celebrated data center model was not homegrown, but rather a repackaged, stolen design.
  • Detailed insider trading records showing that Dave Schaeffer began dumping shares on March 14, 2025 — the same day he received the whistleblower notice.
  • To date, he has sold 966,500 shares, netting $47.5 million.
