I found the Postgraduate Certificate in Legal Issues in OSINT to be a really useful course that helped me develop a deeper understanding of the legal considerations involved in OSINT. The course covered a range of topics, from human rights law to intellectual property law, and provided lots of examples of how these laws apply in real-world scenarios. One of the things that I found particularly helpful was the way the course emphasized the importance of cultural competence in OSINT operations. The instructors were friendly and approachable, and the online discussions were a great way to connect with other students from different backgrounds. My only suggestion would be to include more case studies from the Middle East and North Africa region. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to work in the field of OSINT.
