Along the same lines there’s a German show (on US Netflix) called “How to Sell Drugs Online Fast” that’s loosely based on the true story of a teenager[1] who started an online drug business from his bedroom. It’s pretty funny and a bit Silicon Valley-esque. There’s also a documentary where he’s interviewed. I think it’s called “Shiny Flakes” which was the name of his website.
