If you own a new car and cellphone with lots of apps and do little to nothing to preserve your privacy, the amount of data they have about you is mind boggling.
This is why people think their phones are listening to them when the truth is much worse. They have so much data on you and others around you that they can predict what you’re going to think or do.
It’s hard to convey how well they know you. They literally know you better than you know yourself in some cases. If they want you to think about something, you will think about it. Imagine the power that wields. Now think about how it can be used to manipulate the masses. Scary.
If you don’t think this pertains to you, you’re wrong. Obviously some people more than others but it affects everyone.
Protect your privacy as much as possible. Message or reply to me if you’re completely lost and need help, otherwise just do a internet search
-Install an ad / tracker blocker on your phone and computer. Adblock(pro) & ublock origin are generally accepted as good ones last I checked.
-Purchase and install a vpn. It’s a simple program or app that you install. It hides your location from websites and apps. For the not tech savvy it sounds confusing but it’s not. I use AdGuard but any major one will work for your average user. Free vpns are available but I don’t recommend them. Just install the app/program and click connect and that’s basically it. I have it always on but some people use it just for “stuff they might want more private” wink wink
-delete as many apps as possible off your phone. Use the website instead. Apps are probably the number one data muncher in your entire life. The data they take varies but many take almost everything off your phone and sell it.
Facebook sells your data to over 1000 different data companies. If you can, stop using it altogether, if not at least delete the app.
Do all or even any of these things and you’ll be on your way. It’s taken me years to get where I am. I do a little here, little there. It adds up over time.
This is a topic I’m passionate about so I’m always up for answering more questions
