Google search tip: search hundreds of newspaper archives via news.google.com/newspapers
Talking about Google News... if you quickly want to read science news in different languages, hack the link as shown here and replace NL by news.google.com/topics/CAAqJgg…
es (Spanish)
eng (English)
de (German)
etc.. (2/...)
If you only want to see the news from the last 24 hrs, add (3/..)
Prefer to search only news about a certain topic published in the last 60 minutes? Do this (4/...)
If you want to exclude your own country (and see what other countries write about a certain topic), you need to go to the normal Google and do this. Example: find out what newspapers outside Germany said about Leipzig in the last 24 hrs (5/...)
If you work in teams, monitoring the same topic, you can share them via a link. Here's how (6/...)
Inside Google News, your keywords will sometimes be translated automatically if they are not in the language of the Google News you are in. As shown here. But that only works in the major languages. (7/7) I Hope y liked my insider tips!
How to solve a problem (I have) with google.news.com : lack of search operators? Well, here is a fix. Use the formula google.com/search?q=myanm…… and work from there, do not use news.google.com/search?q=myanm…… (tnx
@braingain) Next tweet: why you should care. (8/)
Suddenly, you can search for the keyword in old news and do a custom range search. Also, you can sort it by date, which makes news search more chronologically. So that's why. (9/9)

A summary of what we found via #osint about Belgian manhunt for a soldier who threatened top virologist Ranst, bbc.com/news/world-eur…. He claims he is a sniper in his bio. (1/..) ImageImage
How do you find a bio like that? His LinkedIn profile can be thoroughly scrutinized by adding /detail/recent-activity/documents/ to the URL of any person. You can see if the person uploaded documents to LinkedIn, which the guy did. (2/...)
In that bio, he reveals his war background: he claims to have fought in ex-Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Kosovo, Libanon, and Afghanistan (3/...) Image

I hope you liked the quiz . By now, you understand that I don’t rule out Disney is behind this and not just a fan.
So my public question @valeriephoebe45 is: do you work for Disney or did you ever work for Disney or have friends or family who work for Disney ?

The point of this exercise was not to quote @variety , but put the nr 4241 of the billboard in a database , Nice work @sutbrod. Intriguing question: who paid for his? The studio? Real fans?
So my #osint question is: who started the fire? From which country is the fan behind this? It’s not US (3/3)

What may appear to be an image of Tacoma, US, it is, in fact, a simulated one. Welcome to the brand new world of deepfake satellite images. washington.edu/news/2021/04/2…
“This isn’t just Photoshopping things. It’s making data look uncannily realistic,” said Bo Zhao, assistant professor of geography at the UW and lead author of the study (2/...)
This simplified illustration shows how a simulated satellite image (right) can be generated by putting a base map (City A) into a deepfake satellite image model. This model is created by distinguish a group of base map and satellite image pairs from a second city (City B). (3/..)

Do you have a company? Did you visit businessinsider.com ? Cool! This is what they did: (1/3) Image
Linking a Chamber of Commerce number to an IP address? Wow. Maybe they automatically put your IP into tools like domaintools.com, and if they see a company, they cross-reference that with the chamber of commerce database (2/3)
Anyway, if you do this sneaky spying on corporate users, you probably shouldn't brag about this. I found the information on the Dutch version: businessinsider.nl/adverteren-bij… (3/3)
