And here is a review of some statues published by representatives of "private intelligence" for ordinary people .... it seems that from this review you can see the level of "training" of "private traders" and the "focus" of their activities ....
What is it ... help in the fight against drug trafficking ... or a guide for drug dealers studying the illicit drug market .....
Recently, during Internet monitoring, I found an interesting article by the infamous “specialist” in the field of “private intelligence” Igor Bederov, who is inclined to disseminate clearly not reliable information, published on the pages of his Internet resource CABIS .... The article is titled “On the Benefits of Big Data in the fight against drugs ”..... The article was written .... published .... The content of the article can be found at [DLMURL =" https://cabis.su/allnews/o_pol_ze_bol_shih_dannyh_v_bor_be_s_narkotikami/ "] https://cabis.su / allnews / o_pol_ze_bol_sh ... rkotikami / [/ DLMURL].
However, the question arises, why and most importantly, for whom it was written .... This question is not idle ... And it is connected with what circumstances ...
As Bederov points out in his article: “Some time ago, we collaborated with the drug trafficking analysis department of the Federal Drug Control Commission. In the course of our interaction, we worked out the option of monitoring drug incidents and incidents. The purpose of this monitoring was: to identify trends (that is, a specific system) in the supply of narcotic substances to the region. One of the pilot (trial) options for such monitoring, we proposed the use of a specialized query in the Yandex search feed ".... Further, Bederov sets out the search mechanism in the Yandex Internet system for open sources of information, in particular, publications in the media, etc.
Further, Bederov “sets out” his following “conclusions”, namely: “Now it’s worth mentioning about big data (Big Data). So, any information can be analyzed based on a large number of data (cases, episodes, coincidences). So in our situation, the collection and analysis of information on the identification, suppression, smuggling, import, supply, seizure of narcotic substances for several years could allow us to determine the patterns of these deliveries. As a result, through analysis, we could find out the following information: approximate norms of consumption of various drugs by region, approximate ways and means of delivery by region and type of drug, estimated delivery times. ”
The following phrase of Bederov’s “scout” draws particular attention ... Namely: “As a result, through analysis, we could find out the following information: approximate consumption rates of various drugs by region, approximate ways and means of delivery by region and type of drug, estimated delivery times "....
This phrase attracts close attention in connection with the fact that the control authorities, about which Bederov “spoke” about cooperation at the beginning of his article, analyze the activities of drug traffickers in various regions in order to carry out activities aimed at suppressing the spread of drugs. of our country .... However, when conducting such an analysis, they do not use the information specified in open sources of information (media, etc.), to which they themselves give similar information in a certain amount. The analysis of the entire potential criminal situation in the field of drug trafficking is carried out by the existing drug control units on the basis of information obtained from operational reports, specific criminal cases and administrative proceedings, operational information. In connection with this circumstance, the drug control authorities, in principle, do not need to use the method of analysis of the activities of drug distributors proposed for “use” by the same Bederovs.
Of course, we do not know with certainty whether Igor Bederov knows that the control agencies in their activities in the analysis of the criminal situation use other sources of information indicated above, and not those that he suggested for use .... However, it may not be knows .... given the fact that Bederov apparently knows about the activities of any law enforcement agencies or intelligence only by hearsay .... Although he declares the opposite .... than obviously, out of his usual habit, he misleads people ... .
However, in connection with this circumstance, the following question arises .... And for whom then, if not for the drug control authorities, such information may be needed, on the basis of which, from Bederov’s words, “we could find out the following information: approximate consumption rates of various drugs by region, approximate ways and means of supply by region and type of drug, estimated delivery times "....
And the answer to this question, in principle, suggests itself .... Of course, such information may be needed only by people who distribute drugs and, with the aim of maximizing the effectiveness of their obviously illegal activities, can study the "market" for selling drugs and, naturally, do not have access to objective information, which is fully controlled by drug control .... The similar methodology for collecting and analyzing information proposed by Bederov in this article and being in the public domain can be useful only to similar people and no one else .... We deeply doubt that simple The "layman", not associated with drug trafficking activities, will be interested in information about the approximate consumption rate of various drugs by region, approximate ways and means of delivery by region and type of drug, estimated delivery dates ....
And from this, quite logical, conclusion, the most important question already arises, moreover, to Bederov .... To whom does he help with his similar articles .... to the authorities waging an uncompromising fight against drug traffickers ... or just those involved this obviously criminal “business” ..... And does he know about “whose mill he pours water” .... Or doesn’t it matter who uses his “methods” ..... Proposed to an indefinite circle persons ....
