New Blog:
AI isn’t just supporting OSINT — it’s distorting it.
Hallucinations, poisoned data, synthetic narratives… and leadership often can’t see it happening.
My new blog digs into this shift with examples, risks, and what must change.

Schau an. Von offizieller Stelle würde so was derzeit wohl kaum veröffentlicht. Dabei haben diese jungen Journalisten nur öffentlich zugängliche Informationen ausgewertet. #Drohnen
New Blog:
Fatigue is the invisible corruption of intelligence work.
It dulls intuition, erodes skepticism, and makes analysts trust tools more than their own reasoning.
#OSINT doesn’t fail when data runs out.
It fails when curiosity does.

Sticker Drop: OSINT Studio 🤩
Mit dem neuen Podcast-Cover war's auch Zeit für einen OSINT Studio Sticker! Wer will auch einen haben? Bei der German OSINT Conference gibt's definitiv die Chance. Du kannst nicht bei der GOSINTCon dabei sein? Schreib mir, wir finden sicher eine Variante!
Wer ist eigentlich dieser OSINTgeek?
Hin und wieder landen Anfragen bei mir, die eigentlich für Matthias gedacht sind und umgekehrt.
In der frisch aufgezeichneten Folge von OSINT Studio haben wir das endlich geklärt:
🎙️ Samuel = @osintgeek.de
🎙️ Matthias = Nicht OSINTgeek, sondern @plosint.com
When analyzing satellite images of the target location, don't forget about alternative sources. For example, Apple Maps.
The images are almost as detailed as Google's, but were taken at a different time and therefore show additional details.

I left my job at ProPublica about a month ago.
Here's why: I've teamed up with @mantzarlis.com to launch indicator.media, a new publication dedicated to exposing digital deception and to equipping professionals and the public with knowledge and skills to investigate it.
Sign up for free below!
GitHub recently restricted access to repos filed with OSINT/dark web/infosec links and resources. I spoke to multiple people that had their accounts blocked from public view without warning or explanation.
