Snoop project is developed without taking into account the opinions of the NSA and their friends,
that is, it is available to the average user.
Snoop is a research dev-work (own database/closed bugbounty) in the search and processing of public data on the Internet. According to Snoop's specialized search, it is capable of competing with traditional search engines.

IP/GEO/YANDEX
search arguments:
nickname The nickname of the wanted user.
Searching for several names at the same time is
supported. Nicknames containing a space in their name
are enclosed in quotation marks
--verbose, -v When searching for 'nickname', print detailed
verbalization
--web-base, -w Connect to search for 'nickname' to the updated web_DB
(2700+ websites). In demo version the function is disabled
--site , -s <site_name>
Specify the name of the site from the database
'--list-all'. Search for 'nickname' on one specified
resource, it is acceptable to use the '-s' option
multiple times
--exclude , -e <country_code>
Exclude the selected region from the search,
it is permissible to use the '-e' option several times,
for example, '-e RU -e WR' exclude Russia and World from search
--include , -i <country_code>
Include only the selected region in the search,
it is permissible to use the '-i' option several times,
for example, '-i US -i UA' search for USA and Ukraine
--country-sort, -c Print and record_results' by country,
not alphabetically
--time-out , -t <digit>
Set maximum time allocation for waiting for a response
from the server (seconds). Affects the search duration.
Affects 'Timeout errors:' On. this option is necessary
with a slow Internet connection (by default 9s)
--found-print, -f Print only found accounts
--no-func, -n ✓Monochrome terminal, do not use colors in url
✓Disable sound ✓Disable opening web browser
✓Disable printing of country flags
✓Disable indication and progress status
--userlist , -u <file>
Specify a file with a list of users. Snoop will
intelligently process the data and provide additional reports
--save-page, -S Save found user pages to local files
--cert-on, -C Enable verification of certificates on servers.
By default, certificate verification on servers is
disabled, which gives fewer errors and more results
when searching for nickname
--headers , -H <User-Agent>
Set the user-agent manually, the agent is enclosed in
quotes, by default a random or overridden user-agent
from the snoop database is set for each site
--quick, -q Fast and aggressive search mode. Does not reprocess bad
resources, as a result of which the search is accelerated,
but Bad_raw also increases. Does not print intermediate results.
Consumes more resources. The mode is effective in full version
Example
# To search for only one user:
$ python3 snoop.py username1 #Running from source
$ snoop_cli username1 #Running from release linux
# Or, for example, Cyrillic is supported:
$ python3 snoop.py олеся #Running from source
# To search for a name containing a space:
$ snoop_cli "bob dylan" #Running from release linux
$ snoop_cli dob_dylan #Running from release linux
$ snoop_cli bob-dylan #Running from release linux
# Running on Windows OS:
$ python snoop.py username1 #Running from source
$ snoop_cli.exe username1 #Running from release win
# To search for one or more users:
$ snoop_cli.exe username1 username2 username3 username4 #Running from release win
# Search for a lot of users-sorting the output of results by country;
# avoiding freezes on websites (more often the "dead zone" depends on the user's ip address);
# print only found accounts; save pages of found accounts locally;
# specify a file with a list of wanted accounts;
# connect to the expandable and updated web-base Snoop for search:
$ snoop_cli -с -t 6 -f -S -u ~/file.txt -w #Running from release linux
# check the Snoop database:
$ snoop_cli --list all #Running from release linux
# print the help for Snoop functions:
$ snoop_cli --help #Running from release linux
# Enable Snoop plugins:
$ snoop_cli --module #Running from release linux
- 'ctrl-c' — abort search.
- The found accounts will be stored in
~/snoop/results/nicknames/*{txt|csv|html}. - Open csv in office in, field separator comma.
- Destroy all search results — delete the '~/snoop/results' directory.
orsnoop_cli.exe --autoclean #Running from release OS Windows.
# Update Snoop to test new features in the software
$ python3 snoop.py --update #Git installation is required

| ========= | ======================================================= | ======= |
Solving:
-
Reconfigure your Firewall (for example, Kaspersky blocks resources for adults).
-
Check the speed of your Internet connection:
python3 snoop.py -v username
If any of the network parameters are highlighted in red, Snoop may hang during the search.
At low speed, increase the 'x' value of the '--time-out x' option:
python3 snoop.py -t 15 username. -
In fact, this is not a mistake. Fix username
(for example, some sites do not allow Cyrillic characters; "spaces" or "Vietnamese-Chinese encoding" in user names, in order to save time: - requests are filtered). -
Change your IP address
Сensorship are the most common reasons why the user receives skip errors/false positives/and in some cases 'Alas'.
When using Snoop from the IP address of the mobile operator's provider, the speed may drop significantly, depending on the provider.
For example, the most effective way to solve the problem is TO USE A VPN, Tor is not very well suited for this task.
Rule: one scan from one ip is not enough to get the most out of Snoop. -
Open in the Snoop repository on Github-e Issue/Pull request
(inform the developer about this). -
Do not pay attention, sites sometimes go for repair work and return to operation.
-
There is problem with openssl in some GNU/Linux distributions, and also the problem with sites that haven't been updated in years. These problems occur if the user intentionally started snoop with the '--cert-on' option.
Solving:
$ sudo nano /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf
# Edit the lines at the very bottom of the file:
[MinProtocol = TLSv1.2]
on
[MinProtocol = TLSv1]
[CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=2]
on
[CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=1]
