" Maurice: And then there will be peace. There will be love. There will be respect. No corruption — just a beautiful world without toxicity. Censorship is needed, so we can protect the sensitive from the harassment that could shatter their mind. Jake: No, false! All you care about is power. You'd use your power to harshly spike down all opinions you don't like. All conspiracies that come too close. You'd dominate exactly what people think, what they do, what they say! Maurice: Come come, Jake, we all know it is a necessary measure. Our internet as we know it, is an often dark place. A place full of haterbases. A place full of toxicity. A place where no one can respect opinions, a place where harassment to cyberbullying level is normal. My internet would be devoid of that. There must be a degree of control over what can and cannot be spread. Piracy is a thing. Harassment is a thing. Arms dealing is a thing. Red rooms are a thing. You see where I'm getting at? At this rate, we simply have to butt in to make the web a safe place again."

Summary
Maurice Alain Robilés (June 13, 1971 in Sherbrooke, Quebec) is the chairman and president of the Transmission Protocol Operation Directive (T-POD), an organisation looking to take over and gain absolute power over the Internet under the guise of a security company and communication protocol developer group. He is the main antagonist of Parts 5 and 6 of ONLiNE DEATH.

Robilés, a French Canadian, originally hails from the Real World, but willingly transmitted himself into the Internet after requesting a transferal to the Belarusian government, one of six governments involved in the creation of the internet (along with the American, Chinese, Russian, Venezuelan and Turkmen governments). There, Maurice founded T-POD along with several other transferred humans as well as several native Internet citizens, announcing to the world the development of the GHTTP (Guarded HyperText Transmission Protocol) transmission protocol for web servers.

What was promoted as a protocol more secure and stable than HTTPS was in reality a powerful piece of malware that would grant the members of T-POD total omnipotency over the Internet, deciding everything that can and cannot occur. This conspiracy was discovered by Brennan's friends, leading T-POD to kidnap all of them (except for Kenneth and Wither, who escaped) and imprison them within a secluded web server, where they were interrogated and brainwashed.

Brennan arrives at the Internet after traveling to the Real World to find his friends missing. He quickly discovers their abduction, the documents they found and managed to hide from Robilés and that Kenneth and Wither have gone into hiding. Soon enough, Maurice starts stalking and following Brennan as well, but he is saved by a secret organisation aiming to defeat T-POD and uncover their true colours. Together, they set out to bring down Robilés and the organisation once and for all.
