Somebody should give them a medal. I suspect that this sort of thing is an underutilized avenue of attack against terrorists and gangs. The surface area of attack has grown exponentially since e.g. the kind of thing seen in The Wire, and the general public is mostly ignorant of opsec.
Thanks, is nice to have at least some positive feedback.
I suppose given my comment makes light of venture capital, machine learning, crowdfunding, catfishing victims, ISIS and Al-Qaeda, I should have suspected it might be unpopular with a fairly wide cross section of HN. ;)
