I entirely concur you are easy to listen to ,attractive ,well spoken , and actually know what it is you’re speaking on I just sobbed happy to be here before the blow up u more THan deserve
I love old print advertisements that are basically single page essays that very earnestly explained why the thing they made is really good and you should buy it. So much more pleasant than modern advertisements. Honestly I also really miss the websites of the late 90s and early 2000s. I really appreciate the minimalism, and that fact that they were usually just a bit of dressed up text, leaving focus on the actually important content. None of this modern full screen infinite photo scrolling with the occasional buzzwords appearing and scrolling by.
I just found this channel from the "How to disappear" video and I'm so impressed by the production quality. You're a great communicator (nice voice, good speaking pace + intonation, uses layman terms without making me feel dumb). I realize there's a team behind this channel and I'm not sure how your role extends beyond presenting, but kudos to everyone involved in the production. The visual elements/examples are well chosen and extends the points you're making, the editing is excellent, and even the studio set up is aesthetically pleasing. Everything's just so polished! These videos are both fun and insightful; I can tell you and your team put a lot of time, energy and effort into them. You've got a new subscriber, keep up the great work :)
Hey, thank you so much for this comment! Yes, in fact, we have a group chat with about 10 people involved. I just forwarded your message to all of them, we are very grateful for your support! - Bradley
@@Sumsubcom I also found your video of "how to get disappear" but could I ask about the purpose and motivation behind this channel. I see you as a company's chairman and you share information about IT.
I love the set that Bradley has. His videos are just mostly of him sitting on a chair and talking about stuff. But he made the extra effort of finding a beautiful, cozy set that makes me feel like I'm in the room, sitting down with him and listening to him talk to me about online stuff
I did the thing that tries to guess your age and gender based on what pictures you like, and it said I was a 30 year old man. That probably explains all the Home Depot ads I get.
the quality and quanitity makes me think this channel will be around for a while, which I love because these videos are great. Hope the algo will think the same
I am ok about my profile being used to filter my ads. I am NOT ok when Facebook shows my real profile to friends of my fake profile or vice versa (if I have more than one profile there, for example), when the entire point of having a personal profile without my legal name is to separate the two personas for different social groups. I also saw friends from one profile offered to be added on my other profile on "friends suggestions" and that's just awful. Also, we can't turn that feature off. Sometimes we don't want to be offered as a friend to anybody, but their creepy system doesn't work that way. What's worse is that sometimes when you're applying for a job prospective employers REQUIRE you to provide your social credentials, so you have nowhere to run if you want to apply, or you have to not deal with them instead (if you don't have a profile with your legal name anymore, I killed mine because of it). Another weird thing is Facebook's "official requirement" for people to use their legal names on their profiles. If they catch you using a pen name they just delete you. Facebook is way more perverse than anything else I have ever tried and I do my best to stay away from it as much as possible. When you're bored you might have fun making a video criticizing the way they operate and maybe even give us a tutorial on how to use it safely, if that's even possible. It's not my case, but imagine a secretly Christian person living in a radical Muslim country, then Facebook starts offering all your Christian groups and friends to your friends and family, even if you used another account for that purpose (and vice versa, and your fake profile to your family members). I would not be surprised to learn that people ended up killed because of Facebook's lack of respect in a situation like that. If it didn't happen already, it might happen in the future. One thing is to use your information for advertising, another is to show your family and "real life" friends secret affiliations you might have that should not cross between profiles. And they do use many techniques to leak the information, using different email addresses and browsers or even different devices isn't enough. They use your geolocation / ip address / routing etc to "offer people and groups" across your identities. I can't understand what they gain from doing that, to be honest, and the fact you can't block that feature makes their platform even less desirable and it's sad people might not have access to a safe space to build on line relationships with people who share the same values without that information leaking between universes. 😟 Sorry for the long comment!
I totally agree with you. As someone in the lgbt community who is still in the closet, I’ve made side accounts to be able to meet other people from the community but Instagram recommended my account to real life friends and family and this have put me in serious trouble. I had to delete everything but still have to bare the pressure and judgement of those around me without having much opportunity to connect to other members of the community anymore. This is heavy to bare and I also live in a highly homophobic country overall...
@@Sunflower-mq2lr Exactly! One thing is trying to profit, another is putting people in danger just because they want to make friends' lists longer with more "stuff" on the feed to mix ads with.
When my son returns home, his smart phone automatically connects to the home internet. He believes that when he has conversations about certain things, he later gets ads about them on his computer.
That was tested and found not to be true. BUT because something you have a conversation about is likely something you are interested in or is relevant to you it's likely to appear in ads. This combined with a healthy dose of confirmation bias can lead to the illusion that your phone is listening to you (more than it actually is)
@@solarsombrero227 My relatives might actually disagree. Now see this. My father doesn't use PC much for productive work, doesn't use much internet in his phone eighter. But he certainly did get ads on topics he covered only in person with someone, with his phone in his pocket naturally. I don't think that this proves it, but doesn't prove it false, eighter. How was it tested? How did the researchers found out that it isn't true? Did they work with a real life case scenario? Did they test it outside lab controlled environment?
dude, i clicked that first link like you said on how google sees you....goddamn they know everything and even some interests which pretty much no one in my family or friends know about... Do you think ecosia is good???
Personally, I think it's good that they plant trees, but their engine is horrendous. Not sure what their data collection policy is, probably very similar to Google. -Bradley
I'm dying right now lol. Practice cleaning out cookies and also when u make a new tab for a different site the Lil icon is also a tracker so switch it back to the old way.
@@myironlung9651 duckduckgo is very dubious. can't find the article anymore but would say look more into it before using it. btw the search engine of ddg is useless anyway. I use brave as browser but don't know any useful search engine besides google
I think the way it tries to interconnect literally everything is the biggest problem, it creates a net you can't escape. But it also holds much of our infrastructures so I dunno, maybe the worrywarts are right and we should prepare for a possible collapse of the internet, solar storms or not.
@@BygoneT David Icke has written that the Internet was designed to scientifically induce a mass mental breakdown in the the World's population. The Western world in particular. The Internet has provided a worldwide 24/7 platform for weirdos, cranks, agitators, blowhards, narcissists and fanatics and the permanently disgruntled. It is a very powerful tool for snoopers and control obsessives and people who would have joined secret police forces in the old Eastern Bloc.
Comfort vs privacy, that's pretty interesting topic because I dont know how problematic this privacy issue could affect us on personal level. All I know atm is ads, suggested links, videos, etc are in my interest and it's all comfort or am I missing something? 🙄 Great visuals and delivery as usual Sumsub, keep doing the good work! 👌👌
One reason in short: if I figure out that you're desperate for a certain item/service, it's easier to manipulate you against your interest (e.g. charge you higher as you won't check). See for example airline tickets that can charge you more because they assume you can afford more...
ngl i have to keep rewatching all your videos because the information never sticks in my brain, but everytime i come back im surprised to see the sub count as low as it is. this channel will hit a million within a year i reckon. the production, presenting and editing quality is next level
RU-vid recommended one of your videos and now I can not stop watching them. You are a great speaker and surely your channel will blow up. I was expecting the channel to have 2+ million subscribers and I was shocked when I saw the actual number. Just have patience, it will definitely happen!
Never been Intrested on this type of content esp not living in the US or EU. But this is a very well put together channel, like other commenters mentioned, it does make you feel smarter eachtime you come out of a vid, thanks for the content!
Thanks for that Google ad settings link. It confirmed my suspicions. My eclectic interests have confused the hell out of their algorithms: 75 or 80% of what they have on me is almost laughable. They may know my name and address but they haven't the foggiest idea who I am! Not one of 50 ads they throw my way is of any interest whatsoever. It's like I tied a swatch of a victim's clothing to the police bloodhound's tail and now I'm watching it run around in circles. What a hoot! Just imagine if everyone began doing this intentionally.
I just found your channel yesterday and *I don’t say this often, but honestly, I’m in love with it!* Your channel is hands down some of the best security advice I’ve come across online. Your content is engaging and well scripted. Just wanted to let you know 😊🙌
I've watched a few of your videos now, and I'm interested in learning how you make your videos. Very good quality of the information, delivery and videowork. How many people are working on these videos? :)
It is quite obvious to me this channel is tailored by and for purposes of a company given in the information section. I may be wrong but this guy may has nothing to do with tech world at all...
If you go to the social media links of channel that are listed in the description, you can see that there is a whole team of people involved in the creation of these videos. Sumsub is actually a SaaS product.
why is the most useful video on the interent so underrated and has not enough views, i binged all of your videos and i got addicted to your style of videos the way you edit and the timestamps you use which are very helpful. I hope you reach 1million subs by the end of this year. Looking forward to more videos
I wish companies will have ideals like Apple where privacy is the priority. In the other hand, with targeted advertising we find things we want or have interest and we end up buying.
Man this channel is amazing. Intelligent and charismatic host, interesting content, and I’m actually learning while I watch. A shame this channel isnt way bigger
Stumbled on your channel a few weeks ago and honestly love the effort you've put in and it clearly shows. The quality is great and the videos are easy to understand. Keep it up, man! You've got a fan from New Zealand :)
I like how u showed a red model T, well talking about how many cars ford sold. Thing is they never sold a red one. Henry Ford famously said "You can have one in any color you want as long as that color is black"
Love this channel! So weird- when I looked at how Google sees me they got some interesting things wrong like my age group, education level, and income class.
This channel reminds me of Athletic Interest. Another channel with amazing content and great presentation but with a small subscriber base. Hopefully they both will grow rapidly.
I hope it was really that easy to make friends by meeting them, the fact most people instantly look away if you're ugly, this is probably one of the problem of physically meeting people. Seriously I'm not gonna step out of my room or show my face until I get that million dollar surgery and become physically appealing.
I don't think you mentioned any kind of ad block, though I assume being a youtuber makes them a conflict of interest haha. Seriously though, I have the ability to also block elements (via html source code) on any page and keep it persistent. Now I can block all pop ups, visual reminders, or other such things on a page. For example, many websites have some kind of "hey pls don't use adblock" sort of reminder, but I can just hide that element by blocking it, and now i don't even have to put up with their pitiful begging lol.
