OSINT: Where was this photo taken?
Knowing how to extract metadata from images and other files is an important skill in both OSINT and forensics. There's an awesome tool that will help. It's called Exiftool, and in this tutorial, I'll show you how it works!

You’re welcome ☺️ Exiftool is awesome!
Just subscribed to your channel Gary - enjoyed the video! So if you are uploading pics, screenshots on LI- is the metadata displayed to all other users who may be viewing the content? Thanks

Hey, not it’s all removed these days. But those companies do receive that data if you send it to them, which they can use for their own purposes. Think: digital marketing and location tracking 👍🏼

If we take screenshot of any photo from any social media... Would there be any difference in the metadata of that photo...from original photo.

If you take a screenshot, then the metadata would be from YOUR device. And most social media sites strip metadata away.
Great content, however is it possible to extract meta data with windows powershell? If so please create some content on that as most of us are MS windows user. Thank you.

Just subscribed to the channel, so what if the only cue we have is a photo a person posted on facebook, as that is not a real photo, is there anything we can do? If it is inside a house and no many things to get from google image search?

You’d have to use multi sourced information to find new data points. Hopefully that person posted many more photos to other places!

It depends if the sender removed the EXIF data. But it might be!
it does not work on windows. Why is that?

Windoze 😉 Mac is Unix based. So many of the cool little tools from GitHub just run natively on it. Use a virtual machine!

lol check out VirtualBox and Debian. There are loads of KZread videos on the topic! Also check out Windows Subsystem for Linux. Might work there.
