A tool to verify Tweet screenshots
Project description
Verify Tweet
Fake tweet images can be generated using a preset meme template from websites like: TweetGen, Prank Me Not and Simitator . Verification of such tweets takes a manual work to find the user, scroll through their timeline and matching. A viral fake tweet image can prove crucial at a time.
A fake tweet screenshot looks very convincing, misleading the general public. For example:
| Tweet 1 | Tweet 2 |
|---|---|
 |
 |
Verify Tweet attempts to resolve the problem by letting users upload such tweet screenshots and verify if the user actually tweeted or not. A combination of Image processing, Natural language processing as well as Twitter Search API makes this possible.
