1) After a quick image reverse search on Google Image, we can find the original publication. Yesterday, Louis de Luxembourg announced his engagement with Scarlett-Lauren Sirgue. instagram.com/p/CNUQgmaC7rm/
2) Time to check their last moves. We are in a pandemic and they are public figures, so everything should be documented. After scrolling about the last news on the Royal Family of Luxembourg, I can see they spent the last holidays in Biarritz, France parismatch.com/Royal-Blog/fam…
3) Time to open Google Maps. I can see water behind them and the building in the background is pretty far from them which suggest the beach is probably long.

Quickly, we have a possible match.
4) Time to look at Google Street view to confirm the match.

Wow, this photo is beautiful and bingo we have the correct place, we can recognise the building of the photo
5) Are you sure? Yes, if you look closer this is the correct building
6) The weather is quite good on the photo. The photo has been probably taken on the 23rd or 25th
7) My original wrap-up tweet was incorrect I removed it. The correct place is probably one of this apartment with a big balcony in this white building
8) His parents bought an apartment in Biarritz. Free advice: don't post photos on social networks if you want to live "hidden" 😬 histoiresroyales.fr/henri-maria-te…
9) Very good question. In the original photo the sun seems to be behind them in the middle of the photo. Thanks to suncalc, the time of the photo is probably between 4pm and 5pm
10) She is right, after a second thought, the place is probably closer than that. There are some nice panorama close to the white building. Perfect for a photo shoot after an engagement 🙂

The IP address of DrugHub, a well-known dark web drug marketplace, has been exposed.

The website owner made a critical OPSEC blunder.

It's OPSEC time!
On the website's /info/market-links page, three links are provided:
- The primary .onion address
- A clearnet link
- A permanent mirror Image
Currently, drughub[.]xx is protected by Cloudflare, but two months ago, it was hosted on the IP address 186.2.171.6. Image

Worried about a TikTok ban? Americans are now flocking to Xiaohongshu (REDnote), another Chinese app.

Spoiler: Yes, it tracks its users.

Time to dive in! ⬇️ Image
When creating an account, you must verify your phone number by entering a code received via SMS.

The request sent to Xiaohongshu's server includes your phone number (of course), along with your IDFA and IDFV. Image

What’s an IDFA? The Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) is a unique device ID assigned by Apple to every iOS device.

Many actors, like data brokers, use it to profile you, track your location, and more.

Only one country was represented at Kim Jong Un's New Year's Eve party. Can you guess which one?

At the Rungrado Stadium, Kim hosted a grand celebration. Before the fireworks, officials enjoyed a private party near the stadium

One attendee's face stood out 🕵️‍♂️

It’s OSINT time!
South Korean media focused on a 2-second clip of Kim Yo Jong, Kim Jong Un's sister, seen publicly with what seemed to be her children for the first time.

But they missed something important 👀
I came across the official video of the private party before the celebration. It shows key figures stepping out of their cars, mingling, and chatting around tables.

Something immediately caught my eye. Do you see it too?

Hackers claim to have breached Gravy Analytics, a US location data broker selling to government agencies.

They shared 3 samples on a Russian forum, exposing millions of location points across the US, Russia, and Europe.

It's OSINT time! 👇 Image
The samples include tens of millions of location data points worldwide.

They cover sensitive locations like the White House, Kremlin, Vatican, military bases, and more.

Time to dig in! Image
Image
Image
Visualizing such a massive amount of location data is no easy task.

Google Earth Pro crashed at 500k location points, and our OSINT platform hit its limit at 1.5 million. Even if it is "just" a sample, rendering the entire dataset at once is a real challenge. Image

5 days ago, an Instagram account shared a video from North Korea with the caption: "A brave tourist secretly captures restricted views of downtown North Korea"

Can we geolocate this footage?

It's GEOINT time!
I paused the video to screenshot this pink building. A quick Google Lens search reveals two matching photos of the location:
- alamyimages.fr/un-agent-de-po…
- flickr.com/photos/tobeyfo… Image
Image
Image
Image
The second link includes a street name and points to this location: 39.00493900995318, 125.73642620392643. Image

On Friday, December 20, 2024, the U.S. DOJ charged Rostislav Panev, a dual Russian-Israeli national, as a LockBit ransomware developer. Arrested in Israel, he awaits extradition to the U.S.

It's OSINT time! Image
You know the drill: with predictasearch.com and predictagraph.com, I traced and mapped Rostislav Panev's complete digital footprint.
