What was your OSINT highlight of 2020?

A fun project I made called degoogle that pulls out result links from Google searches (and seems to bypass captchas which we still haven’t figured out a good reason for).

What emerging (good or bad) trends did you notice over the past year?

Low quality OSINT/bounty info in “viral” tweets, a detriment to newbies and others consuming the info.

Any favorite tool or technique that you tried in 2020?

Dorking popular sites I might normally skip assuming anything good has already been found (found a twitter.com open redirect in Google results doing this)

How do you see the OSINT landscape changing in 2021?

More non-infosec/computery folks learning how to research things on the internet for themselves and protect themselves against dubious information - maybe even with the help of the computery folks in their lives.

Anything else you’d like to add about The State of OSINT?

Thanks to everyone who shares their ideas.
