Social networks have long been an integral part of our lives. We read the news on Facebook first thing in the morning.

we publish our code you can use to check how similar the posts in different Telegram channels or Twitter accounts are. For example, if you feel like a post on a Telegram channel is suspiciously similar to a post on another channel, the code can help you verify how often other posts from those channels overlap. The code could be useful for researchers looking for efficient ways to process big data sets.
