Ex-Google PM Uses God's Eye to Reveal Iran's Chokehold on the World's Oil

Video Description

I turned on ship tracking in God's Eye View and watched the Strait of Hormuz go dark. Ship crossings went from hundreds to a handful. Some days none. Iran has effectively shut down the most important waterway on Earth -- a ~21 mile chokepoint carrying a fifth of the world's oil. So I updated God's Eye View with ship tracking, dark vessel detection, pipeline routes, oil futures, and the ongoing bombing campaigns. What you're about to see is the full operational picture of the Hormuz crisis -- every ship, every strike, every dark transit -- synced to a 3D globe. This is the breakdown you're not going to see anywhere else. Thank you all for the insane response to the first two WorldView (God's Eye View) videos. The inbound from OSINT folks, hedge funds, defense tech, journalists, and just people who want to understand what's actually going on has been wild. Can't wait to put my entire focus on this project after TED is done.
