This article may be almost a decade old, but it's about "forever chemicals" getting everywhere, and it's still happening today. This is specifically about DuPont knowingly releasing large amounts of C8 pollution and systemically covering it up, despite knowing full well the harm they were causing. The only thing that's changed today is they're now using closely related variants which likely cause the same problems.
Warning: it will make your blood boil. It's a long read, but worth it. You've probably heard about this issue before, but reading the sorts of health problems people commonly experience opened my eyes.
To me, the craziest thing about this is the people getting rich from this aren't immune. They're poisoning the entire world, including themselves and their families. And they're still doing it! You'd think at least one person who is involved and has some power to reign them in would have a conscience or at least some sense of self preservation, but nope, apparently not.
