Who is josemonkey?

I am a content creator, an online privacy and safety advocate, and an amateur OSINT researcher. While I have no formal training or professional experience in the field, I have been an avid geolocation hobbyist for more than ten years.

Most people know me from my videos in which I pinpoint the location where user-submitted videos were recorded based on the clues I observe. For each video, I explain my approach to figuring out that specific location, and I talk about what information and tools I used to do it. These videos have been seen by millions of people around the world.

Perhaps the easiest way to understand what I do is to just watch one of my videos.
