In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, we are talking about the Netflix documentary series "Web of Make Believe: Death Lies and the Internet" out now on Netflix. Host Rebecca Lavoie interviews director Brian Knappenberger.

Whether they can damage an individual’s self-esteem, violate a community’s privacy, or even lead to death.
