Tweep is an advanced Twitter scraping tool written in Python that allows for scraping Tweets from Twitter profiles **without** using Twitter's API.
## Benefits
Tweep utilizes Twitter's search operators to let you scrape Tweets from specific users, scrape Tweets relating to certain topics, hashtags & trends, or sort out *sensitive* information from Tweets like e-mail and phone numbers. I find this very useful, and you can get really creative with it too.
## tl;dr Benefits
Some of the benefits of using Tweep vs Twitter API:
- Can fetch almost __all__ Tweets (Twitter API limits to last 3200 Tweets only)
- Fast initial setup
- Can be used anonymously
- Can be used anonymously and without sign up
- No rate limitations
- Can fetch __all__ Tweets (Twitter API limits to last 3200 Tweets)
