I have been slowly learning how to build my criminal empire through vice
First comments and 4 like
LOL YES!
It will cost u 500k depending what u bringing on my ship just a heads up
They only show you what people already know about, good luck with that
😵😅👋
Ive ordered several of the "Container 42", now I can smuggle knowing my shipments are safe and aren't being tempered with!
Not even customs will be able to get in lol
Hmu
I know right! I'm about to get my grind on! Thanks vice!
You can walk by the port of palm beach and see smashed burner phones all over the sidewalk.
And thats why we can't have a nice thing :v
This was the longest ad I've ever watched for something I don't need
A safer world? 😝
What a stupid statement
If I was an international drug smuggler, shipping containers would definitely be my preferred mode of transportation.
By far the easiest way to hide, conceal and transport narcotics across the world.
Like the man said... Theres absolutely no way the authorities can possibly check or search every single container that comes in to the port.
Not only that but you can fit a massive amount of drugs in each one
Could you imagine being stuck in a container , with 30 people , no food water or bathroom facilities , during the global chain crises ? Did they ever fix that ?
maybe u are a dealer
I still don’t know how drugs, goods and humans are trafficked by boat
Pretty simple. Especially the drugs and goods. You just package it and ship it as if it is something else. Say you are shipping peanut butter. Scoop out a lot of the butter and put drugs in the containers and put the peanut butter back in on top. Throw your boxes in a container with 100s of other boxes and it disappears. That's how almost all illegal drugs come in. Very little crosses the border these days. That's why the idea of a wall stopping drugs is laughable. If you understand how the trade and industry works you realize that if you can't fight a drug war. The only way to get drug use and abuse under control is to legalize and regulate drug use for people who choose to indulge like the British did with heroin in the 60s. Back then they had less than 400 heroin addicts because of their regulated and monitored system. We need to make sure that criminals can't profit from selling drugs and taking that market away from them and regulating it is the only way to do that. Otherwise people will keep finding new and innovative ways to ship things into the country and people who use drugs, which there will always be people who do will continue to have to buy from the street. Until society realizes that we are doing this to ourselves it won't end. People are stubborn and stuck in their views, they won't change. Prohibition of alcohol created the gangster era and the drug war is creating the cartels and much worse.
@@jedimindtrix2142 I agree, the drug war doesn’t make sense because humans have been getting high since the beginning of civilization and have always found a way to alter there state no matter the consequences. I was pointing out that Vice barely even covered the title of the video, they didn’t even talk about human trafficking. I would be really interested in learning how that works on cargo ships. My opinion, the video should have been 20-30m and actually explained what’s going on. Thanks for the in depth explanation as well
Well there's thing. It's a v shaped object... Only on the bottom. Bear with me here.. sometimes I've noticed they self propel at the rear ..🤔
Every now and then I see them being pushed by big sticks with flat things on the end... Not sure how either but call me mirrors cause I'm looking into it 😎
@@stuffedgrubs rofl. I misunderstood his comment too. He meant he thought the video was going to go more indepth about the process for which smuggling happens. Not just a quick overview like we got. It threw me off at first too. However your sarcasm is top notch!
@@jedimindtrix2142 😎👍
No shipping company will want to increase their costs with smart containers. Not every company or country could even afford them.
Yeah but you could fast pass the ones that do. Too slowly switch over/ reduce the amount they need to check
Sure they will , they simply pass all costs on to the consumer. Any non smart containers will be held longer when landed in port.
@@rickszabo4312 Doesn't work that way. A small businessman in a Third World country can't afford it, period. They'll use the old stuff. Plus most countries won't even want it as officials _want_ a certain level of smuggling and corruption.
Typical Occidental invent that forgets that the rest of the world is way poorer.
Higher Demurrage Costs! Woohoo!
Vice always have the most click-able titles.
And the best bit is, it’s not even click bait.
Except this one because I'm still no wiser to how drugs guns and people are smuggled
Anymore jokes
The title says "how". They mentioned it exists and vaguely mentioned a solution. Still was interesting, but the title was def click bait as I did not see what I was expecting to see based on the title.
So people die when they are killed?
@@suixi9393 what???
Solar panels on contraries.... containers that will be stacked on top of each other?
That's why the batteries I guess. I'm guessing they don't consume a lot, and getting charged while being moved in a port is enough?
@@cancerino666 well, they are still stacked on top of each other at ports and I also doubt that the batteries could have enough power to last for weeks or months.
the containers also get put on trains spend time sitting in loading dock
You could put contact points on each corner of the containers to daisy chain them together.
@@Korrupted8787 I was thinking they would have something similar, but even then you would need a good portion of the containers worldwide to have this technology for it to become feasible.
"Criminals are just like water, they flow where the money is"
Sounds like politicians
@@retrospecative2454 Politicians flow where the sewage is. I'd have chosen a different word, but people can be so offended when you call a spade a spade.
no sir, I don’t like it.
@@nicolek4076 yea. Everyone is so sensitive nowadays. Always have to make sure you dont say what someone might find offensive. When i was in highschool we didnt have to worry about it as much as now. The media and politics is shrinking peoples brain. Whatever happened to freedom of speech. God bless

Then it takes a day, day and a half for criminals to get past the “smart” containers.
Let's pray and hope so 🙏
@@Goodser you good bro?
Unless they have data recorded on SSDs inside a sealed faraday cage and is armored against high-caliber weapons… along with fail-safe locks… then it’ll be near-impossible to get in without making a LOT of noise.
Hacking won’t do much against a completely air-gapped and EM-proof systems.
@@AtomicSymphonic There is no security method that can stop criminals from simply using a guy that works on the inside. 🤷♂️
Solar panels on top of a container that will usually have another container on top of it, good plan
@SMA Productions sarcasm
Haha what a joke
So the standard shipping container cost 3-5k to make... you want to replace all the containers with ones worth 5-7;times as the original one?? Goodluck with that.
Literally everything will go up, product shipping from dock to warehouse and warehouse to distribution center etc. it’s not like we don’t already have enough policies running up to costs of goods
I’m sure they could sell a retrofit kit if you will to update your “dumb” container
A drunken longshoreman has entered the chat.
That might actually be a worthwhile investment if you're protecting valuable cargo while simultaneously helping law enforcement.
@@amphiumaiii7058 clearly you don't know much about business.
Congratulations to drugs for winning the war on drugs. As Einstein said "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" Legalise regulate and tax
Prohibition does not work.
"Everyone's gotta eat"
*Prohibition does not work*
Say it with me people! This is not a hard concept. We learned it during the 1930's in the USA. Its well past time to legalize, regulate, and tax.
Einstein did not say that
HE DID NOT SAY THAT
@@felixthecat4584 why so the government can fund corporations to mass produce these things? we don't need Monsanto Weed or Cocaine. I'll stick to my farm grown stuff thanks
Legalize drugs and you take care of so much crime and violence.
Legalized drugs, create more problems
@@2PJRR yeah, it's actually the exact opposite, do a little research
@@2PJRR That's not true. Look at the legal heroin programs in Switzerland and Vancouver. Switzerland has had it for 25 years and they've massively reduced addiction and almost eliminated infections from people sharing needles. Vancouver has had their program for less time but they've had the same results. Drugs have been legal for all but 100 years or so of recorded history.
@@2PJRR user name checks out
If you do that you’ll destroy the country in days.
So that's it? I thought this was gonna have some real in depth details
It's actually a commercial for a bad product ideea.
@@madblank Exactly!
Vice are just pushing for more surveillance technology.
Yeah they won't tell you that even at $1,000 more per container 20,000 Containers on a ship is
$20,000,000. Any one who has owned electronics knows putting them in a salt environment is not good.
So if the sensors, cameras, locks need repair do you take the container out of service? Only select logistics companies
will think this makes financial sense.
They can't mock thier bosses' boss too much.
Human trafficking rarely mentioned anywhere, glad you guys are doing it.
I cannot imagine humans being shipped inside shipping containers 🥺
Yes hun it happens they need to feed their families it happened to me too
Goes to show how lucky we are to live in a free world, hey? We were lucky enough to be born into wealthy nations. We could’ve very much so been those same people being trafficked.
The Wire taught me all this in one season
The guy making "the smart container" sounds like he just went "what random piece of tech can we put on/in a container".
Steve Jobs is his idol.
In any system driven by Money Above all , this will ALWAYS exist. Business as usual
Money dont exist in nature. We invented money.
@@sl4074 greed does
This^
@@sl4074 No but power does. Money is power.
@@sl4074no really?
Crazy thing is I’m currently watching the wire episode where they find the 13 girls in the storage container
Season 2? About the docks?
Watch the Container Scene where the black Sergeant appears and says some fries motherfcker
@@bluevillsplash facts
With the technology we have today we could easily scan every container without opening it, especially when it comes to human trafficking.
Put the scanners on the cranes etc and as they pick it up it scans real quick to look for biological entities.
human trafficking is abhorrent and should definitely be stopped but have you seen an X-ray machine that is big enough to scan a container? its heavier than the crane itself, and half the size (if not more) so this is much easier said than done. these X-ray machines are purpose-built platforms and a lot of them have their own conveyer belts, its not so easy to do this logistically and there would a trade off happening in regards to product availability and import/export throughput
@@niranjankumarjha4047 bro I just watched a video of people building a satellite that can orbit the surface of the sun if thats possible then its very possible to have some tech like that built it just takes money and the right minds behind it but human trafficking is a big industry thats been bought into by majority if not all the major countries so I dont see it endin anytime soon unfortunately
@@jmizzyfromthacity6787 I'm glad you told that Joe Biden loving gun banning clown off.
I feel like this little mini doc conveyed literally 0 information in a surprising amount of time
The more you confiscate, the higher the prices on market. endless loop. even in countries where you go to jail forever prices like 500$ per g of something creates a huge incentive for criminals to take risk
A lot of the dudes I knew growing weed in california didn't want it legalized. It killed their profit margins.
lol the cameras will always be turned off if the payout is big enough or truth embarrassing enough
Yep
the war on drugs is a hoax. so many people in on it including people in high places ,cops , military, governments , ones who get caught are making people think there is something being done . i'm sure ther are people trying to do good , it's impossible to do that without GOD and CHRIST
Shiid, it took McNulty a whole year to figure out who shipped those girls! On anotha note, I will take a Lambo from Dubai please, thank you.
god damn what a tease at 7mins long....60 mins please! I love this stuff...great work
Vice dropping bangers lately
In a few 1000 years it will be like star wars
Either that or like mad max 3
If you mean earths gonna look like tatooine then yeah lol
You mean "there are no life forms on that ship, let it through?". Oh god I sure hope trade ain't like star wars, cause its as bad as it is now.
I smoked weed inside my Walmart in my recent UA-cam video 💀
I wish it happens in 10-20 years. I want to witness the action
“In the digital world it’s not possible “
Hackers be like “hold my keyboard “
Thanks for the tips lads
Thanks for the tips!
They barely scratched the surface on the problem (smuggling), nor did they address how vast amounts of drugs/guns/equipment are trafficked by a shipping company that is a front for a particular agency. There were several containers marked Evergreen that stood out; but all of the vessels likely bear the flags of foreign countries (Mersk, etc) adding protection for corporate owners in the event illegal cargo is found. It sounds like countries need to reduce imports and find ways to force corporations who sell products to Americans to also produce them in the US.
Its the best shipping container's advertisement I've ever seen!
It’s everyday bro, with that illicit parcel flow
💯🔥😮💨
Okay but the vice editors are just on a different level
Vice the quality of your work has really hit rock bottom.
Vice is finally back to vice
vice is finally releasing good content again
Thanks
Thanks for the tutorial
This is like the 3rd documentary style commercial from vice
The title is completely misleading and wrong - it should about how a guy in Rotterdam is suggesting a new type of container to prevent illegal smuggling.
Good old classic video content love it
Thanks Vice I just ordered my human child from the spooky darknet and needed to know if it would arrive safely.
Wow this is true journalism, no sponsored content at all....
Good material
I love how Vice news brings you just the FACTS. No bias, no opinion. JUST THE FACTS.
Thanks for DIY, Vice
Title: How Criminals Traffic Drugs, Goods, & Humans By Boat
Video: Sometimes criminals ship stuff. Here are the dimensions of a container and what we might do to them in the future.
No computer has ever existed that can not be hacked. This is a law of computer science. 🤣🤣🤣
What law is that?
Pretty sure my old tamagotchi couldn’t be hacked lol
@@gumpthompson5139 Reset button on the back, stab it with a mechanical pencil and you've got a dead digi pet... 🤣🤣.
Wish there was a movie long documentary on this subject matter
why everybody so hellbent on dissing vice.. i like their stuff
Now that is a great startup idea.. Smart Containers.
Smart! Thanks for making life easy.
Been realized this when I worked for freight forwarder
We aren’t they talking about the corruption that lets these things pass by ?🤦🏻♂️
The Snakehead by Patrick O'keefe is a really great read about human smuggling and immigration.
How about mentioning the government's insanity of taxing cigarettes so much that we are driven to buy them from illegal sources? 😠
They find 1 container with drugs and 50 containers slip thru
Yep. Neverending problem.
vice coming through with the quality content yet again !
Glossed over that ppl part real quick
Great video
Got an ad to watch this video. On this video.
Remember the Suez Canal blockage they had? Think about all the "Human Cargo" that died due to that kind of delay. Imagine the smell of opening that.
Kinda fun to have the PMI Impact anti-drug trafficking ad at the beginning of the video. Lol
If they really believe that those new containers will do anything to curb crime they are beyond mistaken. The real solution is legalisation of drugs to star with... I think all of us here will agree that we will never solve that issue any other way
Yes but regulations are needed as well so people aren't just going wild.
then the gov tax it big like ciggy n booze then everyone will goes back to smuggling
You gonna be the leader now with those
My countries Island's rely on Shipping being as isolated as NZ is but it was funny to see the local Police launch from my city in this clip.
The philosophy of the rich and the poor is this: "the rich invest their money and spend what is left. The poor spend their money and invest what is left".
Investing in today is priceless because tomorrow isn't promised, trading Bitcoins,gold, silver and crypto secure a better tomorrow.
It's nice to hear people discuss about investment, because investment always beat cash.
I understand the fact that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone, but investing today is a hard thing to do because I have no idea of how and where to invest in?
@@nathanelliott5795 as a newbie investing in crypto will be best for you, I know of a portfolio/investment manager, Mr JAY FRANK and expertist in trade investment as you don't have to under go any stress in the trades, he manages my trading.
I'm happy to see Mr Jay Frank mentioned here, My spouse recommended him to me after investing £4000 and he has really helped us financially in thu times of COVID-19 lockdown here in Australia.
finally some OLD vice style docs. good stuff
The report didn't say what happens if a shipment is found carrying illegal goods. Do they fine the owner and shipment company? Do they embargo the ship? Ban them?
This was a nice ad
take a shot everytime container is said
2021 GANG W 😎
Only legend know that there is a hidden advertisement in the name of news.
Nice Vice, short, sweet, and interesting. Keep up the great uploads.
tl;dr people use shipping containers to transport illegal things. Hard hitting reporting here Vicec
So smart container have solar panels on it. But they stack containers on top of each other so how will they charge??? 🤔
I have not seen a better BlockChain, Bitcoin commercial in at least 8 minutes.
Smart Containers look really cool... And really expensive.
next do a video on how news and media like you can find those people but police and the government cant
expected a how to video instead got an ad for container 42
Why are the containers not sent through an x-ray machine? With the exemption of items or chemicals that cannot be exposed to x-ray.
Douglas Adams is well and alive in Rotterdam, awesome
What is the aim and purpose of this series?
just to make you click on the video i suppose
I just watched a 7min ad on a new type of container
I liked the ad, but those containers do look pricey
This insane cycle is not sustainable.
Someone get lockpicking lawyer to make sure that container is secure.
Oh so this was a big commercial for a smart container
So.. when they stack the containers, how's the solar gonna work?
None of the above happens without inside help
Nice commercial for container 42
I just had a commercial from Phillip Morris how bad counterfeit cigarettes are for neighborhoods and the criminals blah blah but aren’t they not selling there cigs to the us in like 5 or ten yrs ?
Thought it would be a video about Purdue.
Okay now my billions can get around pretty safely!! Thanks vice
Could we start switching to clear acrylic glass containers like we make large public aquariums out of?
@@austinudegbunam1883 Says the guy without any ideas.
@@johnstudio55 man, acrylic glass containers are not efficient or have extensive functionality over current containers, there are products that can be damaged by being exposed to light when transported, the containers would have a reduced durability that would increase the need for their production and consequently there would be less sustainability in the business in addition to having much higher prices.
@@austinudegbunam1883 Damn, you’re rude. If you knew all that already why not just say it’s more expensive than say “don’t be stupid”? This is definitely not my field of expertise. I just commented a random thought on a random video in my UA-cam feed. But at the same time even if you’re correct about all that info. Sometimes you have to pay more for things to be done better. I personally don’t mind paying more for things if it will help decrease human trafficking in particular.
