I’ve seen a few posts recently indicating that the autists on 4Chan have been able to triangulate the location of ISIS camps in Syria using just a published photo of the camp. Terrain, buildings, angle of the sun, things like that. Then they turn it over to Russia so it will get bombed. Is this actually true or an elaborate ruse to trap the MSM into publishing it?

It is possible to do this under the right circumstances. You just have to have the data (which you can get from satellite) and knowing some information (such as the time) the Shadows will get you pretty close to the actual site.

Could be a lot of work, but we've used this technique when we were hunting Bin Laden. I don't doubt it is possible for people with enough information to replicate it.

I view that as socially useful activity.
