Didn't the person who leaked that get blown up by a car bomb? That's not nothing.
Not quite. So far as I'm aware the actual leaker remains anonymous, and the journalist they originally gave the documents to is okay. However, two journalists who were involved in picking apart the actual content of the papers and reporting on it were murdered, Daphne Caruana Galizia and Ján Kuciak. Galizia was the one who was killed with a car bomb
Ján Kuciak, murdered together with his wife in their house, in their bed while sleeping. Meanwhile our current (Slovak) government party at that time campaigned and promised to “catch their killer and solve the murder”. You can guess whether they delivered on that promise( spoiler: they didn’t)
Society needs to give billionaires the same treatment. They should feel safe nowhere.
Fucked
It caused mass protests in Iceland and the prime minister resigned over it.
