Thanks for the nice overview... I like the stop-motion !

Good stuff. OSINT is becoming more and more a powerful means of collection as innovations like AI/DML/GIS get integrated and become available in the public purview. Beyond cyber, leveraging OSINT to then launch a HUMINT operation can also bear fruit - if you know what you are doing.

These are phenomenal videos thank you for making them! If I could offer one bit of constructive criticism maybe slow down a bit when showing examples? Very hard for newbies like me to follow, then again it could be the fault of the user lol :)

[@TheCISOPerspective]

Thanks for the feedback. I think I've gotten better but it's something I need to work on.
