In this episode of The World of Intelligence, I sit down with Benjamin Strick from BBC Africa Eye to delve into the evolving landscape of open source intelligence (OSINT). We explore Strick's unique journey from law to military service and ultimately to journalism, highlighting how his experiences have shaped his approach to OSINT investigations. Benjamin shares insights on collaboration within the OSINT community, the importance of analytical skills in transforming data into actionable intelligence, and his notable investigations, including a compelling case in Cameroon. We also discuss the implications of recent changes in social media access on OSINT practices and what the future may hold for this critical field.
