Update: 2024-12-27

Description

In this episode, we recount the story of Operation Flyhook - an FBI sting operation in 2000 that resulted in the arrest of two Russian hackers on American soil. It is quite the story and leaves us with some pretty heavy conclusions.

This episode was written by Nathaniel Nelson, narrated by Christopher Luft, and produced by the team at LimaCharlie.
