The tool works by querying your contacts’ names against https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q={NAME}&indexes=epstein_files https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q={NAME}&index...
I’d hope anyone using this tool understands that names aren’t unique. So if your mother’s or father’s name shows up in that API, it only means someone else out there has the same name. People who are into conspiracy theories tend to love software like this because it helps them force a preexisting narrative to fit their conclusions.
Search for “John Smith” → https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=John+Smith&indexes=epstein_files https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=John+Smith&i...
Now search for “LoremIpsumDolor” (no spaces) → https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=LoremIpsumDolor&indexes=epstein_files https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=LoremIpsumDo...
And, amusingly, “••• •••” (the author’s name) appears 164 times → https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=Christopher+Finke&indexes=epstein_files https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=Christopher+...
edit: I removed the author’s name from this post, because the search results don’t really prove anything. Their first name is extremely common in the United States and returns 166 matches on its own, and their last name returns around 1,000. That’s exactly the point here: this API is doing basic name lookups, not confirming identities. Without additional identifiers (like location, email, phone number, or some kind of unique ID), these hits are essentially just name collisions and shouldn’t be treated as meaningful evidence.
- cfinke 8mo agoThe script searches using quoted names, while these examples all search with unquoted names, which will match either the first or last name. Searching for my name in quotes (https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=%22Christopher+Finke%22&indexes=epstein_files https://analytics.dugganusa.com/api/v1/search?q=%22Christoph...) unsurprisingly results in zero hits.
