In the wake of the infamous 2021 hack, Zile and Bea expose the massive corporate cover-up at the dark heart of the internet: the domain registrar Epik.
When Anonymous announced they had access to Epik’s entire system for seven months, CEO Rob Monster and serial doxer Joey Camp (whose site was hosted by Epik) immediately denied everything. But why the lie?
The denial wasn’t about security—it was about solvency. Epik was allegedly in deep financial trouble and couldn’t afford the catastrophic PR fallout or the massive flight of customers. Watch as Zile and Bea pull back the curtain on this predatory business model, where an entire ecosystem of extremists and harassers was held hostage by one company’s need to survive.
“The Predator Files” dives deep into the shadowy world of two interconnected groups: “Pay To Prey” and “Pay To Say.” Uncovering the disturbing tactics of Joey Camp, who leads “Pay To Prey” in a campaign of cyberstalking for hire. And exposing the operations of “Pay To Say,” a network of pseudo-journalists spearheaded by Frank Parlato, who are allegedly paid to spread defamatory information, often to influence court cases. This series traces their history, exposing the individuals and methods behind these predatory practices.
