Why is my walkthrough not showing up?
- I’m no longer accepting walkthroughs for this specific exercise.
- One or more answers were incorrect or missing.
- The link you sent me was incorrect or incomplete.
- The walkthrough was hosted on a platform that tracks viewers (e.g, LinkedIn).
- I suspected AI was heavily involved in the production of your walkthrough.
- I suspected the walkthrough was written primarily by following my video rather than your original work.
- I haven’t had the time to review and add it yet.
- I forgot about it (doesn’t usually happen, but I’m not flawless).
Why do some walkthroughs have a star in front of them?
The golden star emojis were introduced on the second year anniversary of OSINT Exercises. I use it to highlight walkthroughts that I feel stand out and deserve extra recognition for quality, originality, or depth.
You can read more about the reasoning behind my decision in blog post: “Two Years of OSINT Exercises: The Importance of Community Learning.”
