      Your question is asking if someone can be found by this guy even if there is minimal information about the location.

      My example is one showing how even with very little information, someone can be found.

      So i guess… it has everything to do with what you said.

        I was questioning OP’s hysterical take that he could find Russian spies with his skills. If there’s a photo of someone somewhere you know is a spy, you don’t need a geo guesser anymore. I was just pointing out how idiotic his teenage thought process was.

          Oh! I took it as a joke, but reading it back, i see it can be read both ways. If OP was being serious, then they need a reality check.

          Not to diminish that geoguessers ability. Ive seen a bunch of his videos, and it is crazy how good he is at identifying things like architecture, roads, grass, trees, signs, electrical infrastructure, etc. If there was anything but a white wall behind the person they are trying to find, then this is the guy i would ask.

              Did i say it was?

              Does it need to be for the techniques the geoguesser uses to work?

              No and… no…

                You made the claim that he can tell the CIA were they can find Russian spies by using geoguessing. I’m saying that’s a very childish and subcomplex understanding of reality - probably because your cultural inclination to think of reality as part of the MCU.

                  No, i didn’t, i said i thought the person that actually made that claim was joking. And that if they weren’t, then they needed help.

                  I then said that despite this, the particular geoguesser is really talented and that if there were any clues and it wasn’t just a white wall, then this is the guy i would bet on finding the location.

                  I didn’t need to even say this again. it’s all there in my previous post.

                  Maybe you have mixed me up with OP?
