Pandora Papers: An offshore data tsunami
The Pandora Papers’s 11.9 million records arrived from 14 different offshore services firms in a jumble of files and formats – even ink-on-paper – presenting a massive data-management challenge



A2.94 terabyte data trove exposes the offshore secrets of wealthy elites from more than 200 countries and territories. These are people who use tax and secrecy havens to buy property and hide assets; many avoid taxes and worse. They include more than 330 politicians and 130 Forbes billionaires, as well as celebrities, fraudsters, drug dealers, royal family members and leaders of religious groups around the world.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists spent more than a year structuring, researching and analyzing the more than 11.9 million records in the Pandora Papers leak. The task involved three main elements: journalists, technology and time.

What is the Pandora Papers?

The Pandora Papers investigation is the world’s largest-ever journalistic collaboration, involving more than 600 journalists from 150 media outlets in 117 countries.

The investigation is based on a leak of confidential records of 14 offshore service providers that give professional services to wealthy individuals and corporations seeking to incorporate shell companies, trusts, foundations and other entities in low- or no-tax jurisdictions. The entities enable owners to conceal their identities from the public and sometimes from regulators. Often, the providers help them open bank accounts in countries with light financial regulation.

The 2.94 terabytes of data, leaked to ICIJ and shared with media partners around the world, arrived in various formats: as documents, images, emails, spreadsheets, and more.

The records include an unprecedented amount of information on so-called beneficial owners of entities registered in the British Virgin Islands, Seychelles, Hong Kong, Belize, Panama, South Dakota and other secrecy jurisdictions. They also contain information on the shareholders, directors and officers. In addition to the rich, the famous and the infamous, those exposed by the leak include people who don’t represent a public interest and who don’t appear in our reporting, such as small business owners, doctors and other, usually affluent, individuals away from the public spotlight.

While some of the files date to the 1970s, most of those reviewed by ICIJ were created between 1996 and 2020. They cover a wide range of matters: the creation of shell companies, foundations and trusts; the use of such entities to purchase real estate, yachts, jets and life insurance; their use to make investments and to move money between bank accounts; estate planning and other inheritance issues; and the avoidance of taxes through complex financial schemes. Some documents are tied to financial crimes, including money laundering.

And........NOTHING WILL HAPPEN! Another day, another expose, another quash, maybe a few suicided journalists.

"The ICIJ is based in Washington D.C. You have to be careful with their stuff because they are funded by George Soros. Each document is going to have to be independently verified to check any claims they make about them."

"(This could be a Soros smoke & mirrors play to distract)

Supposedly they expose the secret offshore affairs of 35 world leaders, including current and former presidents, prime ministers and heads of state. They also shine a light on the secret finances of more than 300 other public officials such as government ministers, judges, mayors and military generals in more than 90 countries.

"I strongly agree this could be a Soros 100% controlled OP. Soros could be attempting to deflect any heat coming on him. He could be simply burning rivals. There is plenty of reasons Soros would be involved with a control release. If corruption is involved though, Digital soldiers still need to highlight it. 🔦"

Yup. Lack of censorship is the high sign of a Globalist/Deep State caper. Plus any MSM distribution is highly suspect.

'Seems to be a US intel leak. Not one US politician named.
-Mr. Dirt

Yet. You know the Biden, the Clinton & others in the US are in those papers. Used to control them?
-Harold Finch"

"Check out who paid for the #pandorapapers. Ford foundation, Soros, Barbara Streisand. Smh
-Mr. Dirt"
"So this begs the question: who REALLY benefits from this, given the radical communists funding it?
-Harold Finch"

So, it's just Soros et alia swinging the noose in front of the still useful idiots to flog them on in the agenda? Have they started to balk? So much blackmail, so little time. Here's a little taste of how fast it would go for you.

Our oppressors are the top criminal element of the world.

A few heads on spikes at the palace gates for the rest of the captured useful idiots to gaze upon.

The oligarchy is literally a mafia. They break laws and murder people for profit, and there is a code of omerta between them and the press to never talk about it:

Like, nobody knows that they all use secret bank accounts to embezzle? Like, DUHHHHHHH!

Pandora Poopers looks like selective journalism writing selective hit pieces going after particular targets, just like selective justice. Where these target characters fit in to the scams and schemes and how they deserved this 'punishment' (how they defied the Globalist agenda?) in some manner is the real issue.

Like any Mafia Group, there is a battle for Power.

Buffet, Soros, Gates, etc. all wanna be in the inner circle. But only a very select few can truly be so.

The best thing to hope for is to fragment and divide THEM.

Populist movements all around the world have surged in the past few years. More and more people sense that the transnational elite class is out for itself, that the game is rigged and that opportunities for the average individual to advance are rapidly dwindling. The Pandora Papers seem to prove them right. The question now is: what comes next?
