Excellent! Thank you for releasing this.

Notice the "Knowledge Graph" feature that lets you "Visualize hidden connections between People, Orgs, and Places" just like the cork board meme.

This is the essence of what good "conspiracy theorists" do. Whenever investigative journalists uncover a conspiracy among the elite, they are talked down to and dismissed as "conspiracy theorists". But that is what good conspiracy theorists are: investigative journalists.

For sure - "conspiracy theorists" are just another group of people trying to find truth, patterns in the world and trying to connect the dots. The cork board feel was very much intentional in some of the visualizations. Specifically, the "lie web" visualization that uses "red yarn" visuals to connect detected contradictions across different entities and documents.

If I had the skills, I would totally map that onto a cork board.
