what is bellingcat?
bellingcat is the newsroom that made open-source intelligence a journalistic method: flight trackers, satellite imagery and leaked databases turned into accountability reporting - from identifying the officers behind the skripal poisoning to mapping attacks on ukraine. its investigations regularly target intelligence services, which makes who-reads-bellingcat a sensitive fact in exactly the countries that follow its work.
the outlet publishes an official onion of its site, advertised through the standard onion-location tag on bellingcat.com - so tor browser offers the anonymous version automatically. for researchers using its guides and datasets from hostile networks, that is the sane default.
the address tracked here is the advertised one, probed continuously. green means the osint archive's door is open.
before you trust any of this
- .onion addresses are long on purpose. one wrong letter = someone else's server.
- if a service matters to you, cross-check its address against its own clearnet site or PGP-signed announcements.
- a green badge here means "reachable", never "trustworthy". we report reachability only.
