RELEASE: #DDoSecrets has published the #Fishrot files https://ddosecrets.com/wiki/Fishrot_Files

Approximately 75,000 files and emails from Samherji, exposing corruption in the fishing industry in a scandal extending from Iceland to Namibia, Norway and beyond. Since 2019, the Fishrot Files have kicked off a series of investigations and trials that are continuing into 2023.

The emails, reports, documents, presentations and photos dating between 2010 and 2016 expose Samherji's use of bribery and false promises to control the fishing industry, with company operations in Canada, the Faroe Islands, France, Iceland, Germany, Namibia, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and the U.K. The dataset is more than twice the size of what was previously released by #WikiLeaks. https://ddosecrets.substack.com/p/limited-distribution-fishrot-files
