The issue was not fixed. It defeats the purpose of open source and using a public repo by closing an issue that isn't resolved. I just forgot about it (it's just not software important to me lol) anyways, I responded, meh.

The page clearly states if you don't respond within 24Hrs, your post will be taken down. If you want the problem fixed, submit it, and talk to the people, so they can help you.

Meh, it's nothing special in the first place lol which is why I forgot about it. Their reply was that my version was too old. I'm not updating my Python for something thats super bloated and killing other py scripts I use daily. Maybe I'll just fix it for them lol

But why talk shit about something if I can't make it myself right? So let's just look at what they are doing. They are checking if a username exists on a social media website? and they used python? gnarly.. why not just check a header? I bet it works for most of them, if not all, let's see..

Facebook, username found

Code:

curl -Is 'https://www.facebook.com/RealDanielStern/' >social;cat social| cut -d$'\n' -f1

Facebook, username not found (HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found)

Code:

curl -Is 'https://www.facebook.com/RealDanielStern/' >social;cat social| cut -d$'\n' -f1

Youtube

Code:

(xenial)root@localhost:~/Downloads# curl -Is 'https://www.youtube.com/user/BenBaileyComedy!!' >social;cat social| cut -d$'\n' -f1 HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found (xenial)root@localhost:~/Downloads# curl -Is 'https://www.youtube.com/user/BenBaileyComedy' >social;cat social| cut -d$'\n' -f1 HTTP/1.1 200 OK

See where I'm going with this? Let's write a small script to do facebook

Code:

#!/bin/sh echo $1 res=$(curl -Is "https://www.facebook.com/"$1"/" >social;head -n1 social) code=`echo $res|cut -d' ' -f2` case $code in        200)        echo "username found"        ;;        404)        echo "username not found"        ;; esac

Code:

(xenial)root@localhost:~/Downloads# sh social.sh RealDanielStern RealDanielStern username found

So I think from here we could super easily add as many social sites as we want, with no dependencies (this will work with an out of the box unix machine) but anyway, it took me 10 minutes to write a small script to replace this python script, which is why I didn't respond to the repo. I can add all the sites they check if this is something you actually use, hell I might do it anyway.

Granted yes, I could to. I specialize in Python, love the language. Honestly, I think it's the best programming language.
Just thought it was a nice tool to add to the collection. For Spammers & E-Whores alike, we use lots of tools like these, so we can spam all the users accounts, increasing the chance of them doing what you want.
