Tracking Nazis in your neighborhood has never been easier.
A new, continuously updating website called FashMaps provides a real-time look at neo-Nazis spread across the U.S. and the world. Its creators scour neo-Nazi message boards and websites like the Daily Stormer in order to identify white supremacists and Nazi activists and track their locations, Haaretz reported.
The clickable “Nazis in Your Neighborhood” map allows users to find out information about Nazis living around them. Another map shows all terror incidents carried out by neo-Nazis and white supremacists since 2001.
The creators of the new map do not share their real names in order to allow them to join extremists message groups under assumed identities.
