本指南详细介绍了如何检查您的 LinkedIn 联系人是否出现在公开的杰弗里·埃普斯坦法庭文件中。它使用一个 Python 脚本(“EpsteIn.py”)来自动化搜索过程。 首先,您需要通过 LinkedIn 的“获取您的数据”功能下载您的 LinkedIn 联系人数据(为 CSV 文件)。然后,在设置了所需库的 Python 环境后,运行该脚本,并提供 Connections.csv 文件的路径。 该脚本在 DugganUSA.com 索引的埃普斯坦文件中搜索完全匹配的名字,并生成一份报告(EpsteIn.html)。该报告总结了搜索的总联系人数量、被提及的联系人数量,并为每个匹配项显示单独的“卡片”,包括姓名、职位、公司、提及次数、文档摘录以及原始 PDF 的链接。结果按提及次数排序。 请注意常见名字可能出现的误报,并仔细审查提供的上下文。

一个在Hacker News上分享的新工具允许用户通过LinkedIn姓名在公开的Epstein文件中搜索关联(github.com/cfinke)。该工具使用提供的姓名作为输入查询一个API(analytics.dugganusa.com)。 然而,评论者很快指出了搜索的局限性。该API执行基本的姓名查找,不验证身份;常见姓名会产生大量通常无意义的匹配项。即使搜索不常见的字符串也会因部分姓名匹配而返回结果。 创建者澄清该脚本使用*引号*括起来的姓名进行精确搜索,与最初评论中提供的示例不同。人们也对数据隐私表示担忧,但确认该工具在本地运行,不会收集LinkedIn数据。该仓库曾短暂设置为私有,但后来又公开了。

Getting Your LinkedIn Contacts

  1. Go to linkedin.com and log in
  2. Click your profile icon in the top right
  3. Select Settings & Privacy
  4. Click Data privacy in the left sidebar
  5. Under "How LinkedIn uses your data", click Get a copy of your data
  6. Select Connections (or click "Want something in particular?" and check Connections)
  7. Click Request archive
  8. Wait for LinkedIn's email (may take up to 24 hours)
  9. Download and extract the ZIP file
  10. Locate the Connections.csv file
python EpsteIn.py --contacts /path/to/Connections.csv
Flag Description
--contacts, -c Path to LinkedIn Connections.csv export (required)
--output, -o Output HTML file path (default: EpsteIn.html)

Basic usage:

python EpsteIn.py --contacts ~/Downloads/Connections.csv

Custom output file:

python EpsteIn.py --contacts ~/Downloads/Connections.csv --output my_report.html

The script generates an HTML report (EpsteIn.html by default) that you can open in any web browser.

A screenshot of the HTML report.

The report contains:

  • Summary: Total contacts searched and how many had mentions
  • Contact cards: Each contact with mentions is displayed as a card showing:
    • Name, position, and company
    • Total number of mentions across all documents
    • Excerpts from each matching document
    • Links to the source PDFs on justice.gov

Contacts are sorted by number of mentions (highest first).

  • The search uses exact phrase matching on full names, so "John Smith" won't match documents that only contain "John" or "Smith" separately
  • Common names may produce false positives—review the context excerpts to verify relevance
