OSINT with Twitter

Project TWINT

TWINT allows to collect Twitter subscribers information, such as twits, personal info and other in bypassing the Twitter API.

Twint is an advanced Twitter scraping tool written in Python that allows for scraping Tweets from Twitter profiles without using Twitter’s API.

Twint utilizes Twitter’s search operators to let you scrape Tweets from specific users, scrape Tweets relating to certain topics, hashtags & trends, or sort out sensitive information from Tweets like e-mail and phone numbers. I find this very useful, and you can get really creative with it too.

 

Twint also makes special queries to Twitter allowing you to also scrape a Twitter user’s followers, Tweets a user has liked, and who they follow without any authentication, API, Selenium, or browser emulation.

OSINT with Twitter – When people use Twitter (now X) to collect and analyse data that is available to the public for different purposes, it’s called “open source intelligence.” This include activities such as monitoring digital footprints, assessing public sentiment, and evaluating individual persons. Open source intelligence refers to data gathered from publicly available sources, such as social media sites like Twitter. Twint is an advanced tool for scraping Twitter that comes with Python already installed. Without utilising Twitter’s API, it enables users to retrieve Tweets from user profiles.
