The Shadowbroker screen is shown below. Various information is overlaid on satellite imagery, and just looking at it makes you feel like a top-notch agent.

This is what the map looks like when zoomed in. Aircraft position information is displayed as an overlay.

The right side of the screen displays a summary of information on conflicts occurring around the world.

According to the creator's Reddit post, the GitHub project page was deleted because of the name 'Shadowbroker.' As of the time of writing, they are in contact with the GitHub operations team and are working to restore it. The project's development started with the idea that 'it would be cool to be able to track Elon Musk's movements with a cyberpunk UI,' and the name Shadowbroker is derived from the character 'Shadow Broker' from Mass Effect 2.
