Facebook and Google have been described as ‘the Al Capone's [sic] of the internet' in a unique T-shirt-based news service called T-post.

T-post is a T-shirt printing site that delivers subscribers a monthly ‘issue' with a news story printed on the inside and an image inspired by the story on the front.

The latest issue is titled ‘The Untouchables of the Internet', and features a portrait of Mark Zuckerberg by design duo Craig - Karl.
