Jet Tracker Sites: any chance we we'd know of a "Big Event" when there's suspicious flight activity?
Like if all the swamp lizards are flying their jets to Antarctica or some shit
know of a site that tracks this kind of thing?
Those sites utilize the ADS-B signal to track and announce flights. The devices on those craft that provide this single can be deactivated.
Exactly.
And you don't need any site to track planes over your home. Even cheap RTL-SDR dongle and simple 1090MHz antenna will give you info about all planes within up to 80 miles radius for planes on 30kft altitude. At least for ones that does not turn their ADS-B off.
Not likely to be useful at that point.
I think the best indicator they would provide is when they go empty/down then you know something is up.
I picked up an antenna and pi to run a local instance I can watch whenever I want. https://www.adsbexchange.com/

Track El Al flights. When the number of flights from the US to Israel increases, you'll know something is up
No chance.
When I was working as a ZOGbot we would use a webcrawler site to end-run around S2/J2 (military intelligence). Basically we were in charge of security, and it's pretty difficult to secure a base when you aren't allowed to see the threat assessment or know what's going on across the street. The site crawled social media and news feeds looking for keywords like, "explosion," "bomb," "gunfire," etc. When several sources had "gunfire" pop up at the same time and place, the site would put up a little icon on a map and then link the sources and background info on local conflicts and factions. It was pretty useful, and basically the open-source version of software that the intel fags at the pentagon used. One day isis decided to blow up a 5000 lb V-BIED a few miles up the road from our base, and the secret squirrels wouldn't tell any of the DOD personnel what was going on, so we did. Shenanigans ensued, but the long-and-short is, that within 10 minutes of the intelligence squirrels finding out about the website (on a remote base in the Afghan mountains), the site had been completely shut down as if it never even existed. If they don't want you to know, you aren't going to know.
this is such a cool response...do you still work? any project ideas for a collab?
Didn't someone say we were supposed to have aliens yesterday? They must have been pretty quiet.
