Derek Curry and Jennifer Gradecki – Crowd-Sourced Intelligence Agency

The Crowd-Sourced Intelligence Agency (CSIA) is a creative research project that takes the form of an online application that partially replicates an Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) system, including an interface that allows the viewer to experience how intelligence agents view social media posts and two machine-learning classifiers for predictive policing. The CSIA was created using technical manuals, research reports, academic papers, leaked documents, and Freedom of Information Act files. The goal of the CSIA is to expose potential problems, assumptions, or oversights inherent in current dataveillance processes in order to help people understand both the effectiveness of OSINT processing and its impact on our privacy.
