Now, however, 11,279 coordinates obtained by WIRED show not only a flood of traffic to Epstein’s island property—nearly a decade after his conviction as a sex offender—but also point to as many as 166 locations throughout the US where Near Intelligence infers that visitors to Little St. James likely lived and worked. The cache also points to cities in Ukraine, the Cayman Islands, and Australia, among others.

Near Intelligence, for example, tracked devices visiting Little St. James from locations in 80 cities crisscrossing 26 US states and territories, with Florida, Massachusetts, Texas, Michigan, and New York topping the list. The coordinates point to mansions in gated communities in Michigan and Florida; homes in Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket in Massachusetts; a nightclub in Miami; and the sidewalk across the street from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

I did, what am I missing? I don’t count Maxwell or Epstein here, so maybe I’m just not seeing something.

Yeah I'm not entirely sure how you can track the activity of a device without also being able to tell who that device belongs to.

I guess burner phones exist but something isn't adding up in that math. Where are the names?

Even if they were burner phones, if you have precise enough location data you know where the owner lives, and from there it should be easy to figure out who owns the device.

Should be pretty easy to dig up the property owners of the larger estates. It's straight chicken-shit corpo media at it again.
