Netflix’s documentaries spawn quite a lot of memes, which revolve basically around their tendency to pick subject matters that may not fully lend themselves to a documentary. The latest Netflix documentary Cyberbunker: The Criminal Underworld uses all the tricks in the book to raise the stakes of the documentary and create the illusion of a gripping narrative, but in all honesty, it’s just obfuscation in the hope that people will find it interesting. The story is about a few rather odd individuals who came together to form a company Cyberbunker, that let websites host their data, even if the data was of criminal nature.
This simple idea for a whole documentary seems short of breath to run the course, which is why there has to be the ‘talking heads’ approach to the narrative. People sit in front of the camera, and like in a news report, the actual events are dramatized poorly.

Cyberbunker: The Criminal Underworld is a documentary directed by Kilian Lieb and Max Rainer.

The bunker served as a server for criminals worldwide operating on the darkest and most dangerous part of the internet, the darknet.
Furthermore, the documentary showcases all the “henchmen” of the criminal organization involved in the darknet.
The cyberbunker thus became a data center for a significant portion of the global darknet, located in a bunker that was formerly owned by NATO, situated in a small peaceful town called Traben-Trarbach.
Xennt had created the first cyberbunker in the Netherlands, and one of his associates described...
