Welcome! Your Free Demo Awaits

Dear Reader, Your free demo of our new stock forecasting AI is ready. You can click here to access it now. But before you do... it's critical you understand something first. While we're happy to let you try this for free... The real power of this tool comes from full, year-round access. Our AI has learned to forecast the price of 2,384 U.S. stocks, to the penny, days in advance. It was built by a former lieutenant colonel who coded top-secret projects for the U.S. military. And our AI specializes in spotting rapid-fire, quick profit opportunities, week after week. That means by using our AI over and over, our users could have already seen gains like 5% in just 1 day on Tesla, or 25% in 2 days on Carvana – just trading regular shares. No options or anything wild. Our AI has spotted dozens and dozens of quick trades like these in just the last few months alone. And these winners could quickly add up to grow your portfolio hundreds or thousands of percent per year. But the only way to see potential profits like that is to KEEP using the AI, all year long, as a full member. Normally a full subscription costs $499 per year – or even much more... But we’ve established a much better way to access this AI for a fraction of the cost. Click here for all the details – and to see how you could potentially triple your entire portfolio over the next 12 months using our AI. Regards, Keith Kaplan CEO, TradeSmith

Illustration: Anaïs Mims/Guardian Design A death, a plagiarism scandal and a quest for revenge: the bizarre tale of Otto Z | Alessio Perrone After his mother died, Otto became convinced he’d been wronged by the forensic investigators – and that one of them was a fraud. The truth was even stranger. Photograph: Sam Frost/The Guardian ‘It could knock a whole street down’: the art of defusing a second world war bomb | Samira Shackle On 14 January this year, army and navy squads faced an unprecedented challenge: one bomb on a Plymouth building site, another floating on a dredger in Exmouth. That afternoon, the clock started ticking.

Inside this week’s long read This week, we ran a story about a very strange plagiarism scandal in Germany. We asked the writer, Alessio Perrone, how this exceedingly twisty story evolved in the reporting. We’ve been working on this piece, in which there are many twists and turns, for nearly six months. How has it changed in the process? The story mostly chronicles events from 2020 to 2022 that have been the subject of a court case, and the facts largely remained unchanged while I reported it. But my view of the events changed considerably. The story concerns plagiarism allegations, and I began with a fairly neutral stance: I saw academic cheating as a problem to be rooted out. After reporting this story, I now have many reservations about how these allegations are manufactured and circulated – and those reservations have only deepened in the past few months. What was it like to meet Otto, the man at the centre of your story? When I set out to report a story, I tend to form an idea of which interviewees will be easy to speak to and who might refuse. I thought Otto would fall into the latter group. Instead, from the moment I first contacted him, he flooded me with information. He sent me 48 emails in the last few months, along with several WhatsApp messages, and I interviewed him for several hours on at least four occasions (I lost count). He has a lot to say, and he is a stereotypically fastidious German septuagenarian, so speaking with him required careful preparation. But, underneath that, I sensed that a powerful undercurrent of emotions had yet to surface. It’s a story with many surprises, truly jaw-dropping at times. Was there anything you would have liked to explore further in the piece? A story of this length can seem exhaustive to readers, but there’s a lot that gets left out to keep it – believe it or not! – tight. I would have liked to delve more deeply into the world of commercial “plagiarism hunters”. Individuals hire these private detectives to build plagiarism allegations against someone, often without disclosing their motives. Some of them are colourful characters, and their methods deserve scrutiny. I also would have liked to hear more from Prof Matthias Graw. He turned down several interview requests before agreeing to speak with me – and I’m grateful for that. But there is still much I’d love to ask him.

From the archive Photograph: Max Herman/Demotix/Corbis Cancer cons, phoney accidents and fake deaths: meet the internet hoax buster | February 2016 If you enjoyed our piece about the plagiarism hunter, this piece by Rachel Monroe about self-appointed hoax busters is another great read. We go back to the wild west internet days, when people were creating fake cancer and fatal accident dramas on Facebook, some for money, others just for attention. It all feels rather innocent now. The story takes a surprising turn when the vigilantes have a change of heart.

What else we’ve been reading When your child has a mysterious disease that leaves doctors baffled, how far do you go in search of answers? The Atavist has an emotional rollercoaster of a story about how parents of sick children created a community to fund and drive research and drug trials. Clare Longrigg, deputy editor Hundreds of millions of people now pass their time watching 60-second “microdramas” on their phones. Daniel Kolitz’s report into this burgeoning/unnerving industry is brilliant. A choice quote: “It is the rare person who, in the truest sense, ‘chooses’ to watch this stuff … It would be more accurate to say that, through a series of by-now-unconscious reflexes engineered by large technology companies, this content just sort of happens to people, like a food-borne illness.” Yohann Koshy, deputy editor
