Summary
It all started with radical opacity: a website was born where people could gather and post anonymously, free from consequence or identity. Elsewhere, another site's radical transparency hosted damning documents meant to dismantle authoritarian regimes. But what happens when those two forces converge, and anonymity and exposure become weapons aimed at the same target? This week's episode is 4chan, WikiLeaks, and Pizzagate: Part 1.
