There's a disgraceful ecosystem of public relations & lobbying firms using hackers for hire.

Sometimes they are used to silence critics & advocacy groups.

Like US nonprofits doing climate advocacy.

Our investigation into a group we christened #DarkBasin uncovered a sprawling #India-based hack-for-hire operation.

They enabled US corporations to outsource lawbreaking.
