You are your data - why you should stop cooperating | Alexander Karan | TEDxYouth@Perth 

"Saying you don't care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you don't care about freedom of speech because you have nothing to say" -Edward Snowden

This topic needs a lot more of attention, this will shape the kind of future we will live in

I quit social media one by one this year. There were more negative than positive sides for me when I saw the bigger scale. Crazy.

This is so important. Thank you. I’m not completely cut off, because I still use RU-vid and iMessage, but my life is getting so much better, and at least I’m not giving Twitter and Meta all my details anymore.

"If you are not paying for the product, you are the product" You are paying your time when you use social media. Time is money.

This made me cry. He seems so sincere. I have taken so much abuse for not having a smart phone. From family, friends and even strangers. I have never regreted my decision, in spite of being a relatively sociable and educated individual. Sure there are sacrifices, big ones. But I live my life day to day, and try to be helpful and productive .

Fantastic video. I can't help but get mad when people say they don't care because they're not doing anything wrong. Most people miss the bigger picture and will only realize when it's too late, unfortunately.

Your presentation is so great thanks you for sharing such an obvious issue that we're dealing with every single day but neglecting it. Internet, social media,... Is unreal stuffs but the consequences that they leave is real. We don't have to get rid of them yet we have to care more for what we give and how it'll affect us

Very important talk. Thank you for the slide showing alternative search engines at 8:48, as well. 👏🙂 (Edit: fixed timestamp)

Google's RU-vid servers recorded that I watched this video.

As someone in cybersecurity, this whole talk Is 💯💯💯

Data mining, mixed with proprietary algorithm, creates pay data base exponentially more detailed, precise and predictive, than hiring background check or credit bureau ever could.

The problem is that individually we are just drops of water in an ocean and can't make much difference; even though the ocean is made of drops we are not individually incentivated to do something

This days it's very relevant topic for teenagers and young adults.. love from india

It's very difficult to move away from social media. How do you connect with friends and family in different parts of the world? Is there one big group chat? It's a lot easier to upload photos of your trip to facebook for your friends to see than the individually send those photos to different people. Where is that taking place if not on fb messenger or whatsapp? The less tech savvy will probably not want to use Telegram or Signal. What do you do about the contacts you want to keep but aren't close enough to talk to? It's simpler to have them as friends on fb, check in occasionally. I rarely use social media but it's hard to disconnect entirely.

This just boils down to wether you think critically or not . You can try selling any idea or product but if the people are rational they will not care even if you have all their data . If you are a compulsive buyer and are influencable I can sell you anything

Lol, Facebook sucks at serving me content. They tried to sell me a niqab and an ostrich pillow.

I just want to know why the post office gives out peoples addresses! When I stopped updating my address with post office my address was no longer available to the public!

My parents willingly agreed to allow a device to track what we watch on TV and comply by manually inputting who is watching at what times. I felt like I was going crazy, being the only person who thought this was a terrible idea and they shouldn't do it. People really should be more concerned.

I’m unfortunately not really convinced despite watching the entire video

It doesn't really matter if you pay for software/services you use or not, you are still spied on by a multitude of companies on Internet. It's the reality of modern world

“Why you should stop cooperating.” People who study evolution: *obvious confusion*

How does it affect my credit and the jobs I can and cannot get?

*Great video. you've remind me of what someone once said💖 "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then i been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..*

Great thing about this guy is that he does not take credit for his achievement and he fulfils his aims 😂

Only register where you actually need it. Delete not use profiles. Use your head.

I don’t want anyone having my data. I always ask every website not to track

Yes, why👍 Yes | TEDx👍 😀 👍 and yes maybe you're right 👍 Yes! 👍 👍 # Cop 26 SAVE OUR PLANET 🌏🌍🌎! 👍 '' we are talked a lot about, but we are not listened to '' -why? Thank you.

THANK YOU

How can I keep my convenience without those apps?

Taking data doesn’t really bother me, it’s the ways they come up with, to use it against the people they take it from…

1:31 tell that to all those that stepped up and took there "free" injection, that they are a "patent" product.

Yes block ads on your websites you visit so they cease to exist. While he has some good points it’s damaging to think we shouldn’t have ads.

Can we talk about that the problem is not everyone deleting all their socials? Because it’s extremely unrealistic. The problem isn’t that we all want apps to connect with each other and share content, the problem is that the companys violate out privacy!!!! And the government does nothing about it!

great talk, puts a lot into perspective

Good one. Thanks!

This is so very nice line and very good 👍

The rioters in the US were not armed with firearms. The police themselves let them into the territory, parting and not interfering with the entrance. The rest of the guy is right.

Omg this is my brother!

I’m curious about even commenting on videos like these even though none of my personal information is on my RU-vid account and RU-vid is pretty much all I use besides occasional email not even once a month?

Thank you

Yep my last departure will be youtube..RU-vid... been off all social media for 7 years now. Don't use Google search engine and use VPN

8:26 👍🏼

Well said.

It is bad, but not as bad as it sounds. Credit Cards and credit scores have been watching people for decades now. You took tests which measured you before entering University. If you have tattoos all over your neck, you won't be the first selected for a job. Of course the social media pathways can dig deeper and explore more of your past but They are more interested in selling you some product you don't need or hooking you into another happy foolish loan. It is up to you to not buy in, and They move onto the next consumer. Don't be such a consumer. Now who's up for one of those fashionable $7 dollar teas overdosed with sugar? I'm buying!

always thought it was crazy that we pay to get spied on by the powers that be.

Great and important speech. We should all be more careful who we give what data to. Of course, this comment again gives data to RU-vid and Google. Shame on me. 🤫

If people don't like being ruled by some ruler and show that by force, that ruler should step back.

If ur not paying for the product then u are the product, wise words

When you say stop cooperating, does that include not vaccinating? Or should we blindly follow the government on that on?

Hasn’t the MSM done this to

very cool

why is it that every think piece detailing the harmful effects of social media (especially in a political context), exclusively highlights harmful right wing rhetoric but never left wing? if the point of this conversation is to make people aware of how harmful these algorithms can be, wouldn't it make sense to also highlight the damage on both ends of the spectrum? in the end this ends up just sounding like exactly what the presenter is warning against, social media manipulating political opinions. for reference go and watch the vice video about facebook, which touches on several similar talking points. it basically amounts to "social media is bad because it makes you right wing". it's weird and comes off as disingenuous and not very objective. for the record i absolutely believe data mining and social media are harmful, and the worst example of that was without question the capital riots, i'm in complete agreeance with that point. i'm just thrown off by how there are zero examples mentioned about the radicalizing of left wing politics, and the harmful effects of that.

Australia 🇦🇺 here left Perth WA due to mark mgwan and the governments over reach We are now in a bus stuck This isn’t well

Just yesterday installed calyx on my phone

*cough* If you are here from the Basics playlist, be aware that this person, too, is selling his product. Pick the technical, useful information. Or don't, idc.

How do you feel about your current premier of WA mark mccoward over reach on power. Does this change in legislation worry you

so sad how everyone in the audience seems to not care

I think all the humanity needs to sue facebook, i mean i have to use whatapp because of work. I have no choice here

I believe your technical info. You lost me when you interjected your political conditioning.

👍

👏👏👏

We just wanna go with the flow... But flow is an economic filtered chicken soup, pouring from the summit of innocence...

My journey as a trader was not funny at the beginning simply because I was so inexperienced and clueless till I got introduced to a very great trader mr Edwin Clifford and ever since my journey so far has been the smoothest thanks a lot Edwin.

A lot of opinions, not a lot of facts. I hope the children in the audience had a grown-up nearby to help answer some questions. I hope the children in the audience can see how he is pushing his agenda on them.

But. If this doesn't work as said... prediction. Then; there is this act as if that isn't true, only acting as if it is. As if only to say these things are true because of the use of them. Knowing what a person does and sees just to sell something rather than actually have an idea about do something that makes sense. Not make sense of ways of doing things doesn't need nor want to do. Ideas are for more than selling & buying. Working with what we've got as in people besides giving new people chances in a world that only knows how to benefit from them, not before them...

I hope you’re not talking about the Democrats

I just don't think it's such a big deal, guy

İs this why, we are exposed to ornament fish tank, information processing...

👋👏👏👏👌

this talk is explaining what MAGA ( microsoft, apple, google, amazon) does on a daily basis to the people

Be more selfish yes 🙌🏾

Did everyone forget about Edward Snowden?

Wait! Was I brainwashed into watching this video? [sarcasm] Also - AI still offers me things I don't care about. And I never pick ideas from commercials or adds. As far as changing our biases - some people will be more swayed than others. Correlates with education / degree of accepting believes/religious views. Hence the polarized times of anit-science and fake news. But good points. A simplified version of "The Social Dilemma”

Use Tor onion instead of everything else

05:38 he said vote. Lol

This is incredibly important, sure, but if any of this is news to you what the F? Where have you been the last decade?

🥺

Armed rioters? Do a little research.. they got you bro..

He himself has been brainwashed by liberal talking points. Lol

I don't agree. For me it's a social contract with businesses. I use their products for free and in order to help them get funded I provide my anonymus and encrypted data to be able to show me relevand ads.

I blame Russia.

After 18 years of internet use google still doesn't know what things to advertise to me and the handful of adverts i do see are for things i would never actually partake in lol So please do explain why i care

Lost me on the Jan 6th bit.

Perhaps you could lay out all of the evidence that there was ANY plot or conspiracy to murder anyone on one six.

Oh OK you’re one of those guys I haven’t you’ve been watching the news chump those FBI informants other ones who kept telling the people over and over to go onto the capital over and over and then the other guy took the fence down to make it people that were standing in parts in areas where they were allowed to stand and now they’re charger A felony because where they were standing at nobody would’ve went into the capital if it wasn’t for I can’t remember his name right now but I’m really mean I’m a go back and I’m gonna get it he said you’re talking about like Trump won the election because he stole it or you crazy Trump was not in politics until he became the president the Democrats Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the ones who do that type of stuff they just did it in 2020 and there’s plenty of evidence that people ignore just like Joe Rogan found out how to get rid of cove it 19 any other Dana White the president of the UFC and he was on TMZ he had Covid and his wife had Covid his daughter had Covid and his 80-year-old grandmother had Cove it lost his taste and smell call Joe Rogan because he knows that Joe know what to do because Joe has that podcast the most successful podcast in the world so Joe knows a lot of powerful and smart people and he has many conversations on his podcast Joe got Covid and got rid of it one day Dana White in this family got rid of it for five days and 40 of Joe’s friends did the same thing and got rid of it now you can’t even get ivermectin anywhere since Dana White was on TMZ why is that the government don’t want people to get better how do they know another strain of Covid is coming and it’s going to be stronger this mask is not gonna work how do they know these things they’re not God it’s because they’re putting it in the air themselves why do you think we got Cove it when we did because the elections were coming and Joe Biden know that he needed mail in ballots if he had a chance he still didn’t have a chance so then they cheated what do you think the borders are open and they’re letting illegals and since he became president he stole the president seat it’s Kamala Harris‘s job to take care of the border what are they doing about the border nothing nothing at all they want those people here because they know they can make them vote Democrat will let you answer the country if you vote Democrat well they offered to give migrants if they Lauster their children when they came over the border almost $1 million a family what do you think that is that’s a vote for me money do you know how to bully me do your own homework i’m just a person who pays attention to what’s going on our country has never been like it is right now Joe Biden won’t even go rescue the American people that were in Afghanistan America don’t leave nobody behind what what happened if we really didn’t get into a war he don’t got a set of balls on him at all he just gave the Taliban an army of vehicles and helicopters then he was paying them he just wanted that money freed up in case he had a start paying migrants I am government is so confusing and it’s crazy but after this year I promise you a lot of people open their eyes because there’s two idiots in the White House right nowWhy do you think they’re always talking about the second amendment we need to stricter gun laws we need to do this they want to take everybody’s guns they don’t wanna second amendment because if you don’t have a second amendment you don’t have any amendments because that one protects the rest
