I think something like Enron would play out totally different now, since all of us have so much more real-time access to information -- accurate and inaccurate info spreads so rapidly now due to social media. Things that could be quickly captured with a screenshot (or even mentioned via a text) would hopefully alert people to red flags much sooner these days. You've probably read it, but this is a fantastic book about the whole thing: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/291133/the-smartest-guys-in-the-room-by-bethany-mclean-and-peter-elkind/
