_____________ How did a collective of self-taught internet sleuths
end up solving some of the biggest crimes of our time? Bellingcat,
the home-grown investigative unit, is redefining the way we think
about news, politics and the digital future. Here, their founder -
a high-school dropout on a kitchen laptop - tells the story of how
they created a whole new category of information-gathering,
galvanising citizen journalists across the globe to expose war
crimes and pick apart disinformation, using just their computers.
From the downing of Malaysia Flight 17 over the Ukraine to the
sourcing of weapons in the Syrian Civil War and the identification
of the Salisbury poisoners, We Are Bellingcat digs deep into some
of Bellingcat's most successful investigations. It explores the
most cutting-edge tools for analysing data, from virtual-reality
software that can build photorealistic 3D models of a crime scene,
to apps that can identify exactly what time of day a photograph was
taken. In our age of uncertain truths, Bellingcat is what the world
needs right now - an intelligence agency by the people, for the
people.
