GHunt – An OSINT tool to extract information about a Google account • Hacker News Board

This seems to be interesting, but I couldn't actually fetch android device information from the targets I have tried; THAT seemed to be private information that nobody should access, along installed apps.

Everything else seems just crawling/pinging for publicly available information.

Maybe the "Probable Location" is something a bit private if somebody didn't publish it in google maps explicitly... but then, it's not accurate.

It seems more of a tool for getting awareness of what information you're publishing on google, rather than something to actually fetch private info.

I agree with this. I'm worried about the probable location though, because I've realized that people tend to post reviews (even if it's a one-off) in a location where they live. All the probably locations it was able to guess, it was right.
