But the report also acknowledges that teenagers are often looking to secure bragging rights with their friends, rather than for any more malevolent motive.

Its collapse was the worst business failure in US corporate history to date. Matt Cox has been investigating the causes and consequences of the fall, and the lessons we’ve learnt over a decade and a half later.
