It means "internet" or "cyberspace".  It's an experimental gismu
invented by xorxes and it relates etymologically to the word "cyber".

I don't really know the place structure and I mostly use it as a seltau,
but I assume it would be something like "x1 is a cyberspace/virtual
world/internet inhabited by x2 and implemented by infrastructure x3" or
something like that.

So {kibro nirna}, of course, is "internet connection".
