Fun (random shit I heard on the internet): the enshittification of journals mostly started with Pergamon Press which was founded by Ghislaine Maxwell's father.

If you didn't know this, it'd be weird how many academics are in the Epstein files. Once you do know it, it's obvious.

Oh, and Robert Maxwell was legitimately a badass in WW2. Everything terrible about him starts after that.

The best villain origin stories start as heroes. Robert Maxwell is essentially Magneto if his power was greed and pedophilia instead of magnetism.
