Now that I think about it, it is very strange that TIDOwave posted their "We didn't do it" statement before Tagruato officially accused them.

That's why I say it's pretty sure Tido released the videos.
On Jan 1 they get back from their trip to Chuai. They are calm and say they found no station. Perhaps they conclude that some natural disaster struck it or it was never there to start with.
Then TAG posts about eco-terrorists and an altercation on Chuai and Tido knows it wasn't natural and they are being setup to take the fall. They hear from some of their people who were on Chuai who have videos.TAG raids their "Farm". Tido releases the videos to selected media to show they weren't involved, TAG has a private army and the disaster was clearly not eco-terrorism.
Perhaps, just a guess, they actually use the French media to contact their remaining members.
Now, Ganu strikes back with a letter reiterating the eco-terror angle.
But he comes off as a paranoid dictator IMHO.
Now it's Tido's turn.....
The alternative is Ganu is right. OOOooooooooooooo.......

This is what makes Ganu's letter all the more interesting. He says he didn't want to make this public, and I can only think of one reason why he didn't want to do this - he wanted to take the law into his own hands. He's -
But seriously, the fact that he was forced to go public suggests he was going to execute his own style of justice in his pursuit of Tidowave, extending past the agents at the Farm. This means one of two things -
1. Tidowave did nothing, and Ganu's using this an excuse, or (and this is my favourite one);
2. The first Tidowave group who the second group lost contact with released MGP after sending Tidowave tonnes of info about him, and Ganu is searching for any and all info Tidowave has - and is willing to kill to get it back.

Didn't the Lost Experience end with a letter from Alvar (or whatever his name was) Hanso?
Also, I agree that we shouldn't be calling tag and tido bad vs. good. I know that tagruato obviously doesn't have great intentions and Ganu wants as much power as possible, but I don't think they're capable of unleashing, or even creating a monster to get that power. Of course this is a movie...

Wow! I just figured out the movie.
Jamie's videos shows us how quickly you get strung out on purified DSI.
Gani, like most dealers, is strung out too but has an unlimited supply.
Ganu comes to NYC with a brief case full of DSI to hunt down Tido.
MGP, who is also stung out on DSI, senses Ganu's stash and rips apart NYC.
The movie ends with MGP coming after Ganu like the cops with Tony Montana in Scarface.

I think it's completely reasonable that a Tagruato tanker would be set up as a temporary location. Obviously, they know what really happened, and despite the violent destruction and loss of life, Yoshida has them back out there immediately trying to finish what they started. It has the same level of urgency as when he was in a rush to get the satellite launched despite bad weather conditions.
This opens up several avenues of speculation, including at least a remote possibility of the return of the "MGP is transported to New York inside the tanker" theory. It could go like this: Perhaps Tagruato has some means of controlling MGP, and TIDOWave's meddling somehow temporarily interrupted that control, resulting in MGP rattling his cage or getting loose. Maybe they rushed a tanker back out to the area in an attempt to re-establish their control over MGP.
To go further out on a limb, maybe after re-establishing control, they decide they need to get their not-so-little creation/discovery away from TIDOWave's prying eyes, so they load a sedated MGP into a modified Tagruato tanker and head east, stopping to refuel in New York, where (perhaps due to more TIDOWave hijinks) something GOES TERRIBLY WRONG!
I have no idea.

No cops at the end of Scarface, they are the private army of the Bolivian drug lord.
Ganu wanted to keep this secret because he thought he could silence everybody (or send the Tag Ninjas for the stubborns) but it went public and now he's in trouble.

SECOND ARTICLE the text from the second article
"Members of Tagruato's elite corporate board were greeted with a rare surprise yesterday as founder Ganu Yoshida visited their emergency home screens in a simultaneous teleconferencing broadcast. After much discussion, Yoshida revealed that kaitei no mitsu, the special Slusho! ingredient lovingly known as "Seabed's Nectar", had been approved by the American Food Association.
"Those lost at Chuai would be smiling this day," commented a choked-up Ganu Yoshida, "Tagruato stands strong against the evil of ecologist terror."
Tagruato can now proceed with their extensive American campaign for bringing Slusho! to the western world. In addition to the creation of three Western-only flavors, Slusho! representatives claim that many other surprises are in store for their new audience.
"This has been a dream of ours for a long time," smiles Slusho! Administrative Coordinator Mika Srauy, "We've already secured relationships with several prominent American distributors and are compiling our own Western-oriented marketing team."
The board applauded the news, thanking their friends in foreign lands for such strong support in troubled times.
"Ordinarily there would be more happiness in our celebration but it has been a dark week," admitted Slusho! Administrative Head Ben Miyake, "I am proud to be part of such a brave company."

This may merit a new thread, since it's not obvious this one is now actually referring to two separate, new updates.

MGP maybe bioweapon.... Sorry I haven't caught up on threads, and I expect the ubiquitous fish if I haven't read back far enough, but I am wondering with the strange letter and the constant intimations from TIDO, Jamie's oh-so-bad vids, and Slusho things, if MGP is a bioweapon from the labs (where Mr. What's His Name blew up in a 'gas tank explosion' which may sound familiar) which ironically TIDO found out about, and is possibly a Tag attempt at creating enough havoc for them to finish economic domination? After all, if they created it, and they have sooo much money, who would finance the capture/killing of a creature which the Army states "I don't know what the hell it is..." and also 'aid' in rebuilding New York????
Also, the open letter definitely sounds like Chingrish. Like most of the Smile! ads/propaganda.
If this stuff is not IG, I think someone has spent a lot of time and energy and money to make backstory...

Hold on, hold on.
We all know that the monster destroyed Chuai. By Ganu not telling us, isn't it his fault New York gets attacked? I mean, he could have warned us that something was coming our way.
Unless he didn't know, but that way he talks in that letter tells me he did.
