A shadowy website spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on political adverts on Facebook and other networks. But the people behind “Mainstream Network” have managed to remain entirely anonymous.

We investigate their operation - just as Facebook faces tough questions about their role in preserving the integrity of elections around the world.
