> The whole scheme of providing 600-odd "burner phones" for use by the illicit drug trade seemingly had revenue of AUD$1.5m every 24 months
In today's Australian News:
Police have dismantled a criminal network in Sydney they allege sold $1.8 billion worth of cocaine in four months
The gang, dubbed 'The Commission', was allegedly involved in the distribution of more than 1.2 tonnes of cocaine across Sydney over a four-month period, which police say equated to about 6 million separate drug deals.
I have no knowledge of the gang relationship to the software developer here, whether in fact that developer ahd a drug dependance or not, they may well have been the sort that enjoys anti-normal activity and got a kick from having a secret unsuspected life.
The appeal to a gang of an "independant" secure comm network under their watch is "knowing" (there's the rub though, how certain can you be) that it was "clean" of LEO monitoring unlike, say, recent "secure criminal comms" popular in Australia that were actually developed and sold by five eyes agencies to entrap criminals with.
