The Hyper-Communications Cartel was a faction of the CIS, established by the Confederacy of Independent Systems to manage its private HoloNet channels.
History
Supported primarily by the InterGalactic Banking Clan and Techno Union, who operated private HoloNet alternatives prior to the Clone Wars, the Cartel broadcast Confederacy propaganda and anti-Republic news on its signal, presumably under the CIS Shadowfeed label.
After Po Nudo brought Ando and its loyal systems into the Confederacy fold, he was rewarded with control of the Cartel. The Cartel was responsible for the creation of the Skytop Station listening post during the war.
