Synopsis
We are raiding the Guardian Long Read archives to bring you some classic pieces from years past, with new introductions from the authors.

And there is little evidence that this billion-dollar industry is cleaning up its act. By Tess McClure. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/longreadpod
