What's Changed

Most users should see a significant reduction in false positives (on an ongoing basis) after updating to this release. Nothing is ever perfect (regional differences, etc), but noise should be reduced by a notable margin.

• ✨ Automatic filtering of false-positive prone sites by way of automatic testing on upstream @ppfeister

Hi @ppfeister,
I’ve used Sherlock often for OSINT and really appreciate the project. Since it’s Hacktoberfest, I’d love to contribute — is there anything open that I can help with?
