In the mean while your KZbin video has over 100 trackers the Brave browser blocked the web browser of choice for me and yes finger printing is blocked also. No ads to watch on KZbin either. Brave is a free download.

Hi Sridhar, I really hope you are who you say your are, cause we need more then a protection but a way to be able to stop this tracking BS from going in to our business.

[@Morganati]

Can you really trust anyone though....?

[@zerotoleranceforsataniceli4794]

Out of interest, my android phone updates itself even though I am refusing update notices daily. So obviously our knowledge abd consent is irrelevant to them. My apps update themselves even though I've switched off permissions. Sometimes I find my permissions have been switched on, by themselves apparently.

[@frogmanjones6340]

Ublock origin is also a "solution", since it blocks trackers. It's even open source, so you can trust it's secure.

[@riddick3943]

being open source doesn't mean it's secure automatically... but it's a good extension indeed

Ummm. While you did answer the question how search engines like Neeva make money, I’m wondering how sustainable that business model would be before Neeva starts making deals with Google or Microsoft to sell your data.

[@leonbusjes5794]

If Neeva has it, Google likely has your data as well. Gewgle is crawling, everywhere.

[@relevantinformation6655]

Every time I see one of these non tracking apps, I think “which agency paid for this” …

[@LironSegev]

There is no data to sell since it doesn't collect any since it doesn't run ads. Also check out who the founders are of the company and that should give you an idea of where the company is going.

[@LironSegev]

@@hagbard72 *sigh oh well🤦

[@seantao1182]

We will never sell your data. That would defeat the point of Neeva.

[@PennyManning2]

Ok, so this video is really just an ad for Neeva, right?

[@btbarr16]

To be honest I've gotten so cynical at this point that while I may be blocking other trackers, how do I know I'm just not handing all the tracking over to Disconnect for them to turn around and sell to the highest bidder?

[@timdavis6088]

Because Disconnect is not growing like the corrupt alphabets. I used Disconnect VPN for years until they started blocking their servers by labeling them as spam. Google hates them as they're former Google employees. They were banned from the Google play store for years when they first came out with their VPN app. If we don't support companies like Disconnect then they'll go the way of Neeva. Bought up.

[@MF9000]

Start Page is another search engine that doesn't track what you search for and no ads. It's been around for years.

[@kellikelli4413]

I've used Startpage (seems there was something I didn't like about it when it came to saving articles).

[@Deleteyourself83]

Startpage blocks common vpn connections as well. When I'm using Nordvpn I have to cycle through servers until I find one they haven't blocked. Pain

[@cthularthpurgatory2730]

I've said it before and will say it again, the new protection will be an information bomb to render your profile rubbish, in the mean time actively avoid anything advertised to you that you can find else where, hence your not paying for the adds and actively rendering the adds less than useless.

[@loveit7484]

Wow! Had no idea of trackers or how many. Still, suspected there was more going on. Thank you! Ps) I've disabled the eye icon on my phone but its still there? Turned off my location but it comes up when clearing memory. Thoughts? If you've already covered this, apologies. Thank you for all you do.

[@vodkatonic814]

Does the Brave browser do something similar with its anti-tracking capabilities??

[@Gamer12051]

02:43 HAHAHA! what krome extension? It's Firefox all the way for me. Yes, Firefox has their extension too. However, the extension requires access to _everything_ so how much progress would I be making installing that extension?

[@Kairi5431]

I just run a script blocker, ad blocker, pop up blocker, and sometimes a tracker blocker as well although the script blocker + ad blocker combo kinda already does that if I leave unnecessary scripts on a website off. Firefox add-ons are a beautiful thing, usually

Well nice to see a real honest fella out there thanks man

[@highpriestofseti]

True you can be tracked by software, but did you know you can be tracked when it comes to your pc hardware too, simple example, your hdd/ssd's got there own serial number that can be snuffed out, there are ways though to change the serial numbers yourself to false ones.

I found out that Banks are using browser fingerprinting to determine if you are a known customer instead of using cookies like they used to do. Chances Banks don't use the key for MFA, this became a real pain after I implemented some anti browsing fingerprinting technology.

[@the_red_gamer]

Just use Brave it's ez it can block fingerprint, trackers and a lot of other things

[@GregM]

I believe Brave randomizes the fingerprint that each website sees so that it is different.

[@seantao1182]

Hi, this is Sean, a software engineer at Neeva. In general, the difference between Brave and us is that our company is completely aligned with your incentives. The point of Neeva is to provide you with the best experience, and that means not showing ads, not selling your data...etc. Brave will still show you (their own) ads (which also hurts content creators since they are not getting paid). The thing is, tracking makes ads more effective and companies more money. So between a company that doesn't show ads and a company that does, which one would you trust more?

[@GregM]

@@seantao1182 So the only source of revenue for Neeva is the paid version of the product. So you block ads in search results but ads on KZbin are ok because that makes money for Google and in turn is how creators get paid. It seems that the Premium accounts are US only is that correct?

[@the_red_gamer]

@@seantao1182 actually Brave blocks ads and don't sell your data or spy on you. Brave has their own ads that show as a notification and you can decide if you want to see them so that means that you can still support your creators if you want without slowing down websites (you can also set the max number of ads you can see in a hour) . Also you can send anonymous data and you can decide if you want to send it or not And it's all completely free

[@KRich408]

I want to know how to detect an RFID scanner when in a public place. I was just hit in Quartzite AZ somewhere when I was out on Xmas Eve checking out some shops. My bank caught it when someone was trying really hard Xmas day to buy stuff from a charity and Starbucks gift cards. I know it happened in one of 5 places but don't know if it was someone working there or someone pretending to be a customer with a Reader that got close to me. The Card they got I never use in person just for paying for my cell bill. When I looked up RFID scanner detector all I could find was a very expensive and large Oscilloscope. There has to be an easier way to scan for these things ?! I wish I had the resources to build something simple I could carry around the size of a Mobile Phone that would alert the user of a Scanner nearby. Or a Jammer of the FCC would allow such a device? It would help find people doing this. Like a Hidden Camera detector or a Microphone BUG detector. I was fortunate that my Bank caught it asap and I didn't lose any $$$ on Xmas day . 👍

They will delete all data on request but they hold it for 30 days. So for browsers who say they dont track, hold history and collect data. Why would they put that in the privacy statement?
