A cikk lényege:
"researchers at the Centre for Information Resilience (CIR), a human rights non-governmental organisation, have devised a way by which Telegram users can be geolocated. CIR’s approach uses the Python programming language. Python was used to create a dedicated script which can extract the geographical coordinates of the devices participating in a Telegram channel. As well as geolocation details, the script can discern the identity of user, the date the post was made, the content of the message and any media that was posted such as still photos or video. CIR researchers have included step-by-step details on how to use this script with Telegram. Instructions are sufficiently clear so that even a non-specialist or someone with only a basic grasp of computing can follow them. Once all these steps have been followed it is possible to visualise the locations of the Telegram users via Google Earth."
Ami érdekes, hogy azóta sem találom sem a CIR oldalain, sem máshol a leírt módszer nyomát.
Ha a program nem logolja, nem tarolja az IP-t, akkor semmifele "magikus Python script" nem fogja megtalalni.
