  • In the Sri Lanka Video, Mittelwerk references that they must "target precise genetic targets," suggesting that the spider protocol might involve genetic testing, or biomanipulation of particular genetic profiles.
  • The mysterious island site for the Spider Protocol implementation may be Punkuduvitu Island off the coast of north-eastern Sri Lanka. There is a village called Vallan on this island. Vallan is one of the villages mentioned by Mittelwerk in the Sri Lanka video.
  • Spider Protocol may be a reference to a programming language used exclusively on THF computers.
  • The site is the Island.
    • In which case, could The Spider Protocol be related to the vaccine? Were the others cut off from the outside world by THF as a means of testing the Spider Protocol in a confined space?
    • Spider Protocol IS The Island, and "spider protocl" it's something like a nickname for the Dharma Project, because their logos are like a spider web.
  • The spider protocol, as it seems to be a genetic project, could be the mysterious black smoke, created by the Dharma initiative, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
    • If so, and it was in fact created unintentionally, it could have over run Dharma and be the reason the island was cut off from the outside world.
  • This could be the "very bad things" that Locke as Jeremy Bentham told the Oceanic Six of in There's No Place Like Home parts 2 & 3.
