@@ForgOfficial.Given the context here, we know that "10m of the actual location" is referring to distance. In the case of "10m", an "m" in distance is only commonly referred to as a *metre*. With the metric system, distance is generally measured by mm/cm/m/km, being millimetres, centimetres, metres, and kilometres. With all that, we can easily make out that "10m" means 10 metres. Makes sense, right? So, I suggest you either learn metric and develop basic reading comprehension, or just shut up 🔥
Furthermore, shortening units of measurement to a letter or two is a very standard thing, which is perfectly fine. You don't see people complaining when someone shortens "100 kilometres an hour" to 100kp/h or 100km/h, do you? Same goes for metres.

Very cool and very scary. I think that if you do social media you either have to be very careful with what you say and where you take pictures or just accept that people will be able to find you, if they work hard enough.
fyi, this is not hacking. Hacking doesn't really occur anymore via human, it's all social engineering and using public tools. Modern hacking would be like creating a fake site that looks legit for the target to input creds into and then the bot you setup before hand, takes the creds and inputs them into the real site, does a massive data mine and sends it all in a txt format for you to compile into a searchable form. Of course this is usually blocked by 2FA and other methods, which need to be bypassed using spoofers to pretend to be the targets device and receive incoming comms. Most of this is just done by a simple script and bot network, phishing targets with hundreds of thousands of emails and phone numbers that were bought off the dark web. What rainbolt did was a simple sleuth. He used public search engines to find his target. A target that literally went out of their way to make breadcrubs.
