Cool, but it seems like 80% of the results in your example demos are Youtube video IDs.

- Mogzol 5y agoI find it kind of funny that they would choose to show those as demos when it's obvious that most of them really aren't Youtube video IDs. Like "Accept-Lang" is pretty obviously not actually a video ID, even if it matches the [A-Za-z0-9_-]{11} pattern and technically could be a valid ID. On the other hand, I don't know how you would actually verify whether an 11-character string is or isn't a Youtube ID (short of querying Youtube itself), so I suppose it's nice that potential IDs are shown, just seems they have a very high chance of being false positives.
- meowface 5y agoYou can reduce false positives by trying to identify base64-seeming strings that are 11 characters long. Above a certain amount of entropy and uppercase/lowercase/digit distribution, etc. You might risk false negatives, but different flags for different levels of sensitivity could help with that.
- ehsankia 5y agoAt least from the config I see that the rarity for it is set pretty low (0.2), so you can filter our the low rarity stuff. I would probably run it by default with like --rarity 0.5 or something.
