Learn to build a web app that can monitor millions of posts across all social media platforms to chart public opinion in real time.

Social media has become our modern-day agora, the place where we get our news and engage in political discourse. With disinformation, hate speech, foreign interference, authoritarianism, market monopolization, and political polarization all on the rise, monitoring social media in the public interest has never been so difficult nor so urgent. Social Media Exposed is an in-depth beginner’s guide to coding full-stack web applications in Python to track and analyze social media activity at scale, giving you unparalleled insights into the cultural and political conversations of our time, then empowering you to reach your own conclusions.

You’ll start by coding a web app to monitor Russian disinformation channels discussing Ukraine on Telegram, then learn more adversarial methods to scrape the Wayback Machine, Instagram, and TikTok. You’ll detect Twitter bots following Saudi influencers, extract text-embedded URLs to reveal a white supremacist blogosphere, parse archived tweets to reveal the discourse leading up to the January 6 insurrection, and learn to circumvent Meta's and ByteDance's defenses to scrape Instagram and TikTok, collecting evidence of war crimes in the Middle East. Finally, you’ll write an API and deploy your observatory to a cloud server to collaborate with other investigators. By the end of the book, you’ll have a working website that allows collaborators to log in, request data collection, and perform analysis of collected data, via a point-and-click interface. 

Along the way, you’ll learn to:
  • Use Python and RabbitMQ to retrieve Telegram data from a remote API
  • Store data with PostgreSQL and query it with SQLAlchemy
  • Analyze the data you’ve retrieved with Pandas, NetworkX, Gephi, and other tools
  • Use state-of-the-art AI tools to transcribe audio and classify text
  • Deploy a website with an interactive dashboard using FastAPI, Dash, Cytoscape, Uvicorn, Gunicorn, Nginx, AWS, and Let’s Encrypt
  • Containerize your apps with Docker and provision infrastructure with Pulumi

Whether you’re a citizen scientist, a security researcher, a journalist, an activist, or a scholar, Social Media Exposed is an essential blueprint for building your window into online worlds.

i would definitely recommend. stick with your regular size or size up for a less slim fit
Size: Small, Color: Black
I usually wear a medium, I ordered a small based on reading the reviews. I am 150lbs 5’4”. this coat fits great for me personally. it’s not bulky, it’s not baggy. it is a slim fit jacket, definitely more on the slender side. when i raise my arms above my head , the sleeves do come up a bit. I would suggest sticking to your normal size or if you want a less slim fit with a tiny bit more room, sizing up wouldn’t be an issue. the coat is super soft and has some weight to it. i would recommend this jacket, it is warm and a nice piece for formal attire.

Black mens coat
I didn't expect such good quality from such an inexpensive black coat, stylish, neat, looks expensive, none of my friends believed that I bought it so cheaply! No pellets appeared after a year and a half of use

Has shoulder pads.
The jacket has shoulder pads that don't necessarily show on the image in the purchase area. Pretty pronounced so if that's not your thing definitely stay away. Got lucky and it doesn't look too bad on me but it took so long to receive the package I don't feel like going through the refund process so I'm dealing with it. Quality is great tho
