Transcript excerpt
So this is just an update on Aliens Eye. It's a tool that basically searches for usernames across all social media. As you can see here, I searched for my name and you've got all these links that it's found associated with my name. Keep in mind that this video is for educational purposes. There's nothing illegal about this. This is just basically dorking. It's basically searching stuff. It's finding information about a username. So you could do this to your username to see if your name is across any social media platform, even platforms you don't even know about. It can literally be on there and you don't even know it. And you're probably thinking, why would hackers use this? Well, black hat hackers have the intent to wear a black leather jacket like me, but most importantly, to find information about someone or something. Well, it's not something it's actually just about someone in particular. Look, you've got all these like, dude, it's crazy. You've got Khan Academy, Google Classroom, you've got all these other websites. This is actually better than Sherlock.
