There’s Virtually Nothing You Can Do To Protect Your Online Privacy
In the wake of Roe v. Wade being overturned, online privacy is on everyone's minds. But according to privacy experts, the entire way we think about and understand what 'privacy' actually means... is wrong.
In this new Think Again, NBC News Correspondent Andrew Stern dives deep into digital privacy - what it really means, how we got to this point, how it impacts every facet of our lives, and how little of it we actually have.

so what is your solution? we shouldn't own a bank account because someone could do that? I assume you keep your money under your bed... what about your you tube account??? You want to use the internet and take advantage of it? well you have to let these company collect data so they can make a profit and keep all these great services efficient and relaible! and waht is wrong with getting targeted ads? it's actually a service for you.

@Zoom I understand it pretty good actually, definitely more than you paranoid individuals. I know the risks and if you don't want risks just don't use the internet. But don't expect that companies shouldn't profit from you in some ways, it is completely normal and natural. So instead of telling me that I don't understand put your money where your mouth is and delete your social media account or don't use internet, or maybe go use those trash search engines like duck something and those useless VPN services. Even better would you pay a monthly fee to use you tube or Google? Because if they can't track you and send you relevant ads they cannot run these platforms 🤷🏻♂️ as simple as that.

any identification of yours is your private properties; they have no correct reason to request you to give your private property to them for regime they want
In the age of modern technology. I am so concerned that companies can just sell our data for a quick buck. I feel like we as consumers have no choice anymore regardless what they put in the privacy policy or what they say about “protecting” our data. This is such an important topic that the youth and society needs to talk about.
My friends think I am just being paranoid about this subject as I refuse to join any social media platform. You have expressed the same sentiment as I have and I was pleasantly warmed hearing someone with the same opinion. I also think, if the information is mine to start with, if nothing can stop this, I should at least get a cut of the profits.

I have blackout tape over my camera eye on my computer. Both to be seen and take pictures. Thus I keep getting a pop up screen asking me to speak/say specific words. I don't comply. I don't want my face, eye or voice print known. So, the sudden command to speak increases and sometimes my ability to get rid of this invasion is nearly impossible.....even to shut down my screen freezes for awhile. I think I am upsetting the computer system.

These issues have been known & talked about for a while now, obviously there is a disconnect for most people between individual consequences from their data being collected. Hopefully more content like this highlighting the real & potential risks of data harvesting will lead to more people giving this issue the serious attention it rates.

Being completely private and being online, you can only have one. That just how the internet works since day one.
Cleverly omiting the name of these "databrokers" and the one he requested a copy of his data from ...

how do you get one of these reports?
I would like to know how to legally request a copy of this data gathered and to which databrokers and how to ask for it.
There is so much you can do but most people choose to be lazy
Google says you don't own your location data, they do. They provided the infrastructure in order to track it so you don't get much choice in how it is used. The best proof of this is if you have a business it is listed by google all without your consent or input including your hours of operation which they know because of the data your phone sends them. You can go online and change the hours of operation manually which they take about a day to approve but the point is they allow this with very little information from you because they know exactly who put in the request just from it coming from a google phone. If you ask them they will tell you this very matter of factly.
No lie. No one respects boundaries these days.
There is no such concept as internet privacy. All internet communication is routinely monitored and can be viewed openly by any public body with the technology to do so. Usually local law enforcement. It is only protected on the stored servers not while being viewed or accessed

It's refreshing to see professor solov talk about this I thought I was going insane talking about this but not being able to articulate just like this. We don't ask why. We don't ask what you mean? We just make these "inferences"
I requested my file from the broker in the video, I’m still waiting on the request to be approved. Will be interesting to see what’s contained in it, it’s pretty scary how much information that they already knew about me for the identity verification request.

Not true they just signed a bill 2022 for companies to sell your data. For 1, there were other alternative ways they could have watched what you were buying without looking at your data. Them buying and selling data was just an excuse to break the law. That's why they signed a bill to make it illegal and added it to the privacy protection act.
I'm quite shocked
Thank you, sir.
Stealing illegal and private data from public individuals is a criminal act that majority of governments say is theirs but if it is theirs then they would obtain from their own mindset instead of stealing and selling someone's else mindset. Bottom Line!

That's because Privacy is a Narcissists Unreal Fantasy, and it's never Really Existed. If it ever was real, and legitimate, then we'd never have ever had eavesdropping neighbors, tabloids and gossipers. But we do though, and we're even guilty of invading others privacy. So let's not be so self-absorbed, and move on to a real problem we can tackle.
