Our community is not a tiny one anymore. Of course you can't do with 104 what you could do with 19. But you can't do with 19 what you could do with 104. So we're adapting, and are happy to welcome you, new folks! I look forward to working with all of you...
Our volunteer community plays a hugely important role in our work, and the community keeps growing! We aim to create more meaningful opportunities for collaboration, learning, and impactful investigations in 2025 and beyond.

🔔 GOOD NEWS!

Before I tell you more, I'd like to urge you once again to NEVER contact anyone when conducting open source research to help the authorities. 🤐

The beginning of the year has been rich in investigations. After 4️⃣ reports sent to the FBI, we sent 1️⃣ report to Europol two weeks ago...

We wanted it, @bellingcat.com's Tech Team has done it! Listen to @galen.reich.me.uk explain how to use very easily this geospatial research tool which helps enormously when you need to cover an area, alone or with others.
