[1] Where is this picture from?
I downloaded it here on taawaa, to investigate it, and by the time I had found INTERESTING THINGS in it, the post had scrolled away.

(Keep reading the thread, it gets good)....
[2] first I cropped it and modified the contrast, to bring out detail....
[3] what I saw seemed to be four different things....

(the pink/purple is false color; the object is gray)
[4] First, a trouser leg...
[5] Second, a medical boot...
[6] Third, what at first appears to be a concealing cloth or scarf which has fallen away from what it is meant to conceal....
[7] Fourth, a device.

(It is gray. The violet is from bending the color spectrum as a highlight.)

FYI, no amount of Google searching has located that device yet.
However, it is very similar to some models of law enforcement ankle monitors....
[8] One thing that makes matching difficult is the coarse grain of the image.

Does the device have a vertical slot on the dome/

...or is that two strings, like the ear-strings of a COVID-mask, pulled across the front as the mask slips off?

[end - for now]
The fact that I used a software package called "The GIMP" to edit the photo now seems to me a bit ironic.

LOL.

@DoItCueT @Qtah17 @RichardGrenell [1] I was on an FBI team that was tracking Osama bin Laden from late September 2001 to sometime in 2009

We had a similar opportunity to kidnap Osama bin Laden and his staff in Sudan, a Sudanese colonel offered to betray bin Laden to us on a remote Saharan highway

Mueller nixed
@DoItCueT @Qtah17 @RichardGrenell [2] Mostly I was stateside doing comms for a ratline that started in a refugee cam next to the airportp in Khartoum, went through the refugee community in USA, and from us to the FBI.

(The Sudanese would not talk directly to FBI agents.)

@DoItCueT @Qtah17 @RichardGrenell [3]
The project was hated by CIA/NSA, because we kept proving them wrong.

Taliban was spoofing NSA by playing high quality audio of comms pre-recorded in Sudan, over unsecure radios in Afghanistan. The NSA ate it up.
