Last week, The Standard published an expose on a pornography syndicate operating from a six-bedroom house in Nairobi’s gated Savannah estate. Reporters found two sets of women having sex in front of a live webcam broadcasting the sessions to an online audience of local and international viewers.

This is not the first time such a discovery is being made in the city as the cost of producing and broadcasting digital content continue to reduce.
