      <title>The decentralised web with Lorand Bodo</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The World of Intelligence, I am joined by Lorand Bodo from Tech Against Terrorism to explore the implications of the decentralized web. We discuss how this emerging technology alters traditional communication methods, allowing for direct peer-to-peer interactions without the oversight of central servers. Lorand shares insights into the potential benefits and challenges this poses, particularly for national security and counter-terrorism efforts. We examine the dual-edged nature of such technology, highlighting its use by both individuals seeking privacy and those with malicious intent. This conversation sheds light on the evolving landscape of open source intelligence and the urgent need for researchers and security professionals to adapt to these changes. Tune in for an engaging discussion on the future of intelligence in a decentralized world.]]></description>

      <title>Challenges in OSINT: social media changes and tracking right-wing extremists on alternative platforms</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The World of Intelligence, I delve into the evolving landscape of open-source intelligence (OSINT) with a focus on the challenges presented by social media changes and the tracking of right-wing extremists on alternative platforms. Joined by Mark Wilson from the Jane's Intelligence Unit, we discuss the implications of platforms tightening access to information and how OSINT practitioners are adapting to these shifts. We explore the rise of alternative social media, such as Gab and Telegram, which have become hotbeds for extremist activity, complicating monitoring efforts. As the golden age of OSINT appears to be waning, we analyze the necessity for analysts to evolve their methodologies and adopt new tools to effectively navigate this challenging environment. Tune in for insights on the future of OSINT and its critical role in national security.]]></description>
