Is your phone listening to your conversations? The video Google deleted that Facecrook doesn’t want you to see?


In the previous post, we drew attention to how Google is recording you via its product, a 'smart' speaker called Google Home.

In the comments section of that video, the author Liron Segev mentioned that he's done another similar video with regards to the 'social media' (or rather 'advertising') giant we colloquially call Facecrook.

The video has since been removed.

Approximately 3 weeks later a video on this topic was posted, where at this point in time it is unclear whether it's the same video that was once removed.

In any event, the current video mentions some fascinating results, and most importantly a tutorial on how to see what Zuck knows about your online identity where you have an 'account' within his data gathering corporation.


Please note:

- We do not recommend using 'social media' apps from your phone, where if you must then from your personal computer will be a better alternative.

- We do not recommend using 'closed source' apps, as it is not disclosed by the app manufacturer where your data goes.

- We do not recommend using Apple devices if you truly value your privacy, where a 'de-Googled' phone would be a better alternative, from 'barebones' Android (AOSP) providers like; LineageOS, /e/ foundation, GrapheneOS, CalyxOS or others.
