Here is my #osint challenge for today. Where is this dog sitting behind the wheel? Photo taken 20 seconds ago. Always explain method after the GIF (the Twitter geotag is false!!)
The precise question is: where am I. (=same area as dog). So not: where is the building. (2/2)

This is what I will do for @Cronkite_ASU in Phoenix. Can't wait to share #osint with university students. Hoping that this initiative of @sarah_h_cohen will be noticed by other US universities - a dedicated course for #osint should be mandatory if you research stuff Image
How do you fix the missing custom range date search in Google Images? Here's how: #OSINT (2/2) Image

After @elonmusk bought @Twitter, I checked out what employees posted on LinkedIn. It contains also some material that has not yet been published. See you in the next few tweets. (1/...) Image
I'll start with the Program Manager - Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Accessibility Faith Saenz. She writes "The way Elon works shows me that if he owns Twitter it will be very different. It will change things. And that makes me deeply sad. Deeply." (2/...)
"Here at Twitter, we don't force our Tweeps to come into an office under florescent lighting with a tie on and work until the sun goes down. (...) It makes us human. Elon has made himself clear publicly time and again that he is more of a bad lighting and tie guy." (3/...)

How will @elonmusk deal with free speech on Twitter? Only 6.4% of the inhabitants of Planet Earth live in a full democracy, just 21 countries… #TwitterTakeover #Twitter #MuskyTwitter twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Musk said to advertisers that Twitter will be “adhering to the laws of the land”. Which means adhering to laws of authoritarian countries , good for 37% of the world population. #TwitterTakeover #Twitter #Musk #musktwitter (2/3) Image
Musk said he bought @Twitter to change the world. His statement yesterday about respecting local laws troubles me. Till now, people can critique royals in Thailand, mock the Turkish government or bash the president of Uganda on #twitter #TwitterTakeover #Musk #musktwitter (3/4)

The verified Twitter account of the opera in Oviedo, operaoviedo.com is used as bait for people to think that @elonmusk is promoting a bitcoin scheme. The next few tweets: what happened and why am I sure? (1/...)
If you go to the official website of the opera in Oviedo, it will show you a link to their official Twitter account. As you can see, that account is verified by @twitterblue . But somebody took over that account and changed the name into Elon Musk (2/...) - see picture below.
Also the picture that @elonmusk uses, is inserted into @operaoviedo. Suddenly it looks like that there are two official Elon Musk accounts, for the untrained eye. The Verified Account sign is the same, the name too, but not the account name, see below (3/....)
