@brozu This toot very much sounds like this one here. Be kind and credit people's previous posts

@sonjdol Sonja, thanks for sharing this.

Look my profile picture: I know what I’m writing and I never seen this toot before, belive me. I was just talking with a friends on LinkedIn and shared me this data that I’ve double checked on duckduckgo.

Like you can see in my other toots, I always share source and credits. That's not the case.

(I know, it’s strange)

@brozu Thanks for clarifying. It just looks so similar and was in my TL yesterday

@sonjdol it is. It’s embarrassing because I was trying to comment on a situation, clarifying with the data.

You can search on the web: they are so similar to one.
