YouTube Profiting from a Drug Market, and SIM Swappers Working with Ransomware Gangs

We're shaking things up with a new format! As well  as the two stories available to all listeners, we have a third discussion at the end which is only for paying subscribers (like you). We explain why at the top of the show.
As for this week's articles, first Emanuel explains how YouTube is making money off a livestream of an open air drug market. After the break, Jason and Emanuel discuss their two stories about Israel-Palestine and the lack of archiving efforts and freedom of information. In the subscriber's only section, Joseph breaks down a wild new marriage in cybercrime: English-speaking SIM swappers and Eastern European ransomware operators.
