Actually this is not a pointer to a blog, rather a new DC think tank within a university. Their 'About' says:

is an interdisciplinary research hub designed to address the wide-ranging impacts of new technologies and non-traditional threats. Our participants are experts in fields ranging from cyber security, great power conflict, malicious nonstate actors, climate impacts, global health security, data analytics, and technological innovation. The center engages students and professionals in cross-cultural dialogue on the advantages and disadvantages of emerging technologies across the globe. We are committed to a balanced, forward-thinking approach that fosters serious engagement about the future impacts of technology across a broad spectrum of fields.

A pointer to a website not seen before. It is the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) and USA-based. You can select the country of interest. I have looked at just two: Cameroon and Nigeria.
