That pretty much sums up my two (short) pieces in this month’s WIRED. Number one is about the Photoshops of crime — the point-and-click tools that can turn anyone into an online thief. Number two looks at the latest narcocorridos, the insanely popular oom-pah tunes about and for Mexico’s drug lords. (That song above? Five and a half million views and counting on YouTube.)
It’s all part of the magazine’s underworld issue. Be sure to check out this peek into New York’s high-tech sex trade and Jonah Lehrer’s amazing story of a statistician who cracked the lottery.
