Motherfu.cker, these social media sites really do spy on you

Post by Grudge »

You all must have had an experience where you think you might have talked about something, and you wondered if your phone was listening to you because you started seeing certain content based on that. Well today I was thinking about getting someone's dad cigars as a gift. So I asked my fr.iend on Whatsapp if his father liked cigars. Lo and behold, now I'm seeing cigar videos on Youtube! And Youtube is not a Facebook owned website, it's Google owned! And I absolutely did not search for cigars on Google or Youtube! Fuck...this.

literally everything is being tracked by someone, everything.

is your phone a google phone? are you using googles keyboard app? search for it? talk to to it? etc etc.

the keyboard alone is tracking everything you type, you don't even need to visit social media or use specific apps. it's a google keylogger essentially
