Wait are you saying that teenagers are running 20M monthly traffic sites and using money to distribute drugs? Any other illegal activities?

Which funds which then?

Something does not sound right in this story.

I am sorry you lost a close one but it seems silly to blame torrenting teenagers for this.

Chances are the law are after them already because of their risk seeking behavior: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/news/meet-nate-norman-a...
