Open source intelligence is important into far as a number of things that it can do in terms of its value context, indicates warnings, confirmatory, it's shareable. We've talked about how the insight from open source and journalism has been effective in places like counterterrorism, in geoeconomic statecraft behind north. I do wonder after God willing, this conflict in Ukraine ceases that when the war crimes are being investigated, perhaps on both sides, that the open source environment will probably be one of the better sources of evidence to support those investigations.
