Our guest today is the anonymous author of open source intelligence "OSINT" newsletter Line of Actual Control, where he combines open data, imagery, social media, and other sources to create innovative investigative research about topics ranging from military conflicts to zoning law violations.
We should note that this interview took place shortly before the Russian invasion of Ukraine when OSINT techniques gained much wider exposure as the world struggles to quantify and comprehend the war.
