  • Harvard professor Shoshana Zuboff wrote a monumental book about the new economic order that is alarming. "The Age of Surveillance Capitalism," reveals how the biggest tech companies deal with our data. How do we regain control of our data? What is surveillance capitalism?
    In this documentary, Zuboff takes the lid off Google and Facebook and reveals a merciless form of capitalism in which no natural resources, but the citizen itself, serves as a raw material. How can citizens regain control of their data?
    It is 2000, and the dot.com crisis has caused deep wounds. How will startup Google survive the bursting of the internet bubble? Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin don't know anymore how to turn the tide. By chance, Google discovers that the "residual data" that people leave behind in their searches on the internet is very precious and tradable.
    This residual data can be used to predict the behavior of the internet user. Internet advertisements can, therefore, be used in a very targeted and effective way. A completely new business model is born: "surveillance capitalism."

      a. What exactly matters throughout all of future eternity and to whom does it exactly and eternally matter to? Currently: Pertinent facts matter, but one day, there is not going to be a conscious entity left for them to matter to, at least not from this Earth.
      b. Currently: Nature is our greatest ally in so far as Nature gives us life and a place to live it, AND Nature is also our greatest enemy that is going to take it all away. (OSICA)
      c. Currently:
      1. We are ALL going to die one day from something.
      2. We are ALL going to forget everything we ever knew and experienced.
      3. We are ALL going to be forgotten one day in future eternity as if we never ever existed at all in the first place.

    Funnily enough, one of the only things I recall my grandad telling me - and he was the commercial director of a big firm - was never to buy from the brands that advertise the most. He told me that the money they put into advertising was money that wasn't put into research and production, therefore putting less emphasis into the product itself.
    This philosophy has served me well during my life.

    • @sebastianeberth8373
      @sebastianeberth8373 Před 2 lety +5

      honestly though that doesnt make too much sense nowadays. Sure there might be firms that spend a lot on advertising (in whatever way) because they have to. But those firms spending a lot may also simply be those who sell well enough to be able to afford it. And in capitalism as we have it today, it doesnt matter what product you as a user buy, you will have tons of options; sometimes firms simply cannot afford not NOT advertise their stuff because it will simply stay unseen/unheard of. And thus if you sell more because you advertise well you can in turn invest more in research than those who didnt advertise in the first place.
      I'm really not a marketing enthusiast (although kind of working in it), but there's a saying I think makes more sense: nothing destroys bad products faster and more effectively than marketing well made. because people will (usually) realize if a product sucks or not.

      As bad as this doc is, it’s really a whitewash and the tech is far more intrusive, more sinister and ubiquitous (commercial application is only secondary and just a cover), it doesn’t require personal or home devices, and has been used for decades already. Yuval Harari is addressing the tech to a degree but puts another spin on it and pretending it’s not already in place and long been operating.

A typical person is more than willing to trade lots of freedom for some convenience, especially the convenience of being a member of the herd. That's what Nietzsche called "herd mentality". You see that in your everyday life. How many of your friends just do what everyone else does, like what everyone else does, do nothing to actually exercise the freedom they already have? But my original point was about the way a given society is established - its legal framework, constitutional framework. If you carefully analyze any constitution, you'll realize that most of the freedoms aren't absolute, they are limited by some other freedoms or other interests of greater importance.

      This video has been on my recommended list for weeks and I just kept ignoring it. I wasn't interested in seeing it, but today I thought oh my word this persistent ! Will watch it and see why it's being brought to my attention. I'm now wondering if the system that is used to control us has another side that is trying to let us know what's going on. Look I can see how this sounds bat poop crazy 🙄😬 but it did make me think why no matter what I was watching, diy, tarot readings, jewlery making and yes, theories of what is going on, this video was alway promoted to watch. Just think it's a bit strange 🤔

      As bad as this doc is, it’s really a whitewash and the tech is far more intrusive, more sinister and ubiquitous (commercial application is only secondary and just a cover), it doesn’t require personal or home devices, and has been used for decades already.

    Here's another rabbit hole: Fitbit and other smart watches can create a heartprint, a signature of your heart activity that is unique to you like a fingerprint. This same heartprint can be read by an infrared laser at significant distances so that your identity can be revealed even while you're wearing moderately thick clothing, masks, etc.

      This is cool and scary but my Fitbits hardly ever read my hearteate accurately to begin with. In fact they often get wrong the heartrate of people with darker soon because the green lights are not reading the skin as accurately as light skin. Only the Apple watch which uses infrared I think gets the most accurate reads. Also does this mean it loses accuracy if you take drugs that affect your heartrate such as large does of caffeine or anti anxiety medication?

    It's best not to search for everything you're interested in on Google. On the other hand, if you want to see ads about specific products by all means, search away & you will receive ads for items like the ones for which you searched. Example:. I searched for info about a specific pistol I was interested in purchasing at a sporting goods shop near me. Within one hour of my Google search I began receiving ads for guns of all kinds, self defense shooting classes, shooting attire, shooting accessories, etc... I deleted the &/or skipped the ads & they finally diminished to almost none.

    I'm pretty sure even if you leave your phone at home, they track you via others smartphones you are in proximity to. If their system sees your phone location at your home, not being used for a long period of time, but another device picks up your voice via the mic, or sees you via camera, they can still pinpoint your location, and log data on you.
    For example. I left my phone in my car while visiting my parents house, my dad and I were talking about buying a specific brand of pressure washer. That night, I get bombarded with ads for that brand of pressure washer. Keep in mind neither of us had searched for this before or after, or even anything in that category of tools. At what point does it go from being paranoia to a proven fact? I guess if I want to use technology, I'll just have to live with being subjected to this, as creepy as it feels. The first step of combating this trend is awareness.

I learned a foreign language, patented a design, finished paintings and books I had been meaning to finish for years and produced pieces of choreography. ( Was working in the Arts at the time.) I also think I saved money to buy a house as I was not constantly tempted to buy things. I won't say there was no downside but there was certainly a huge upside.

Not two seconds later her phone made a weird ring tone that neither of us had ever heard before. she looked on her phone and the message was a link to a page from Wikipedia on what to do if some one gets electrocuted. Neither me or my wife have any sort of voice recognition software or any kind of google assistant or anything like that on our phones, yet the phone was listening and thought there was an emergency and revealed itself by sending that link and the strange ring tone, I have made some inquires to some friends who are more in the know about these things, none of them were surprised by the story, but none of them could explain what happened and to this day I just except it as a ghost in the machine

      @@oed84 My friend, *NOT PROBABLY!* They are PROFILING US on CZcams. CZcams Platform is not a DUMMY website that serves about 70 MILLION videos a day BLINDLY. I wouldn't be surprised if about HALF of all these videos on CZcams just like these are the doings of the GOBERMINT. They are looking for people who are against the GOBERMINT even an ounce. So, they can put them on their WATCHLIST. Just read S.S. Cookies comment below... In fact, all SOCIAL MEDIA is being utilized by the GOBERMINT in search of people who HATE the GOBERMINT. This is all OUT WAR AGAINST HUMANITY not just within the UNITED STATES of AMERICA but all AROUND the WORLD. *Do you not know that FACEBOOK is HEAVILY FUNDED by the CIA?* You just wait, my friend... They will eventually pass a law that every house MUST HAVE HIGH SPEED INTERNET and at least ONE DEVICE needs to be online with all the features enabled ALL THE TIME. Hey, just look at the city you live in. It is against the law to live in a HOUSE without CITY UTILITY HOOKUP or the GOBERMINT has every right to KICK YOU out of your OWN HOUSE. lol... You just wait, F_H_D... lol...
