No morals, no qualms, no borders: Tal Hanan and Team Jorge have turned chaos into business

Team Jorge also claimed responsibility for an infamous cyberattack that was intended to sabotage a referendum on Catalan independence in 2014. He also relayed how a client paid him to help in the arrest of Canadian fashion tycoon Peter Nygård for alleged sex crimes.
