OSINT Live Stream : OSINT News & Tools - January & February 2022

Join The OSINT Curious Project team as we talk about some news and tools in #OSINT. This week, Micah (@WebBreacher) and Christina (@ChristinaLekati) briefly talk about the new OSINT Curious blog : "Location of an IP Address" and the dangers of relying too heavily on the geolocations that become available through IP addresses. Sector035 (@Sector035), who authored the blog, will cover this topic in more detail next week. They also talked about the Geowifi, a tool that aggregates wifi data from multiple sources, and discussed #OSINT use cases with the tool Cleanup.Pictures, a tool that is used to retouch images by removing objects, people, texts and other disturbances. Micah and Christina also talked about the role of gut feelings and hunches in OSINT as well as how they can support or hinder the intelligence analysis process. Listening to our gut feeling is important, but in intelligence analysis one needs to also be aware of their biases, and of how their past experiences might affect their gut feeling and their judgement. Last, they talked about Obsidian, a note-taking and knowledge management tool that provides many possibilities when it comes to documenting, organizing, and creating connections between data - or even their thoughts.
