My son had a CyberPower prebuilt computer with an MSI motherboard. The background image was the MSI dragon. That motherboard died, and we replaced it with I believe an Asus board, and flushed the hard drive for a fresh install. When it booted up the first time, it had whatever background image came standard, I think the basic Windows one. On that boot, he connected to his Microsoft account. On the next boot, the background image was the MSI dragon, something that shouldn't have been on his system at all. I had a different machine with a Microsoft account that used Office. This machine was a huge tower with lots of drives in it. There was a name in the list of machines connected to my Microsoft account I didn't recognize. When I clicked on it to see what it was, I immediately recognized it because of the number of drive and the approximate used capacity of each. I understand that Microsoft ties Windows to a particular motherboard, but there is absolutely no reason for Microsoft to even know how many drives I have to do that, much less the approximate free space of each drive. You're not paranoid if they really are watching you.

Rob, I appreciate how you continue learning and reporting on it for us! Now I learn how what I thought was my idiosyncratic penchant for learning to type my comments has paid off in privacy! Also the fact that where I live, ANY phone use while in the driver's seat is illegal. Other benefits to non-speech recognition: I would type my comments so I'd remember what I said - my memory is in my fingers. I noticed a loss of memory capacity when I started to forget phone numbers because I was no longer punching on keys when I called. I used to know by heart around 300-400 phone numbers in the past - but now, mostly the numbers are in my contact list, not in my memory.

They (The Corrections Officer) gave me this long one page paper to ready into the phone several times until a computer voice said ok. It was just a bunch of random paragraphs that meant nothing. After completing the process. I was allowed to make my call. I realized that they recorded my voice print. Now the government doesn't need to see you're face. Any time you speak.

[@yosefmacgruber1920]

And fabricate fake video of you doing some crime, according to the old movie _Total Recall._ I recall an episode of _Star Trek TNG_ in which Data, when he was taken over by some alien presence, imitated Captain Piccard's voice, and locked everybody out of the Enterprise's computers. And rattled off a verbal password so long that nobody but his android self could even remember all that. Of course we know back in the 1990s, that the actor that played Piccard, Patrick Stewart I think it was, simply voice-acted that part, and they made it look like Brent Spiner has spoken it. In fact, that was largely my idea for better data compression of video-conferencing Skype or whatever, before internet data became so fast. That way, the image need not appear so smeary or so lagging. They could simply make a model of your head moving, and a model of your voice, and then transmit lesser data to animate it and put words into it, and it would seem like a rather good impersonation of you, but really would be you speaking, well sort-of. I wonder if they are already so advanced, that mere voice-acting is enough, and that video game characters might automatically sync their jaw movements to appear like they are speaking what is in the recording? And imagine if they could do more realistic text-to-speech. Why even bother with the voice acting? Indeed, _Portal Prelude_ a prequel game to _Portal_ , seems to be but merely computerized text-to-speech, not even having real voice actors. It was a pretty decent game, and if I wrote a game, I might do it that way, thinking to add in actual voice actors later, if we ever get the extra funding.

And sometimes these episodes can be a good thing when struggling with a problem too hard for my brain to wrap around which could work to the advantage of the A.I. to help to develop a relationship which is dependant & addicted to the point that it becomes a high for me to be on it like a narcotic. And Biblically this can become excessive and take the place of prayer and Bible reading from an actual book and not on a phone that hears my private most intimate struggles and could use potentially dangerous recomended content to plant me at the scene of a crime by simply dialing someone's number that I have never met before and repeat crank calls to various numbers in this person's address book call list on their phone and create video suggestions related to what I like to watch and use this info to convict me as having an association with real criminals who i never met, and use the media against me and persuade a veiwing audience not to believe in my innocents but to deceive them into thinking that "i am connected."

Hi Rob, I'm 8 minutes in. I am very security conscious, and would like to correspond with you about my protocols. One aspect you haven't broached yet, every company that one calls records our voices. I am sure our voices get back to-not Google, Amazon, Apple, or Microsoft-but the entity that has the heads of those companies as agents, I think of the term, "agent," in the context of contract law. To disallow recordings of our voice is to do away with doing business over the phone. I always steer away from phone business if possible, and would rather correspond. They record your voice, but will not share the recording. If you record a conversation that they are recording, they will hang up on you. In my thinking, any company that records a phone call is aware of it being recorded, which gives me legal ground to record the call.

I realised even private and confidential counselling sessions weren’t private and am so reluctant to go to counselling now. That’s why I just Pray more in secret, from my heart now to God rather than talking. And I’ve decided I’m only gonna speak words of Life out loud and keep the personal stuff in my heart, and have more personal, private, quiet, secret heart to hearts with God My Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ my Saviour by The Holy Spirit my Helper. He understands when I don’t even use words! Or even talk! He gets what I’m trying to communicate because He understands everything and every person.

Google cares, so does my Alexa.. she's listening to you right now lol

[@anthonygato407]

"Alexa breathing heavily.."

[@christineescajeda8167]

Who's listen right now

[@christineescajeda8167]

@Jesse Graves who's listening

[@thecentralscrutinizer5105]

I'm so glad you've confirmed my suspicions, I've always had a phobia about one's talking to their _"Gubmint Tracking"_ devices. I won't do it. I don't even want to be in somebodys house who has those awful 24/7 siri/alexa snoopers activated

[@thecentralscrutinizer5105]

@Jesse Graves ur new world's in shit order.... u must be one of them Idiot-Box followers.... I feel for ya couz....

[@Deist000]

Me liking this video is probably a threat to my digital sovereignty .

[@shawl777]

Lastly...all this brings to mind an old Stones song from the mid-70’s called Fingerprint File. Way ahead of its time...lyrics are so fitting for today.

[@christineescajeda8167]

Will speak on the jitterbug phone Thank you for sharing

[@mcm4981]

Thanks, as usual for excellent insights... degoogling soon!

[@VincentVonDudler]

I thought you were going to address Google and Amazon's ability to synthesize your voice. Imagine these companies possessing the abiltity to synthesize from a voice print speech patterns for real time conversation. Pretty f-cking dystopic not knowing that you're chatting with the person you think you're chatting with.

[@robbraxmantech]

What about the Google AI where you're conversing with a person that's not a person but a computer. And people don't know it?

[@believeinyourself4457]

I do use LIve Transcribe for getting those chapters done. Messages are swiped, or I just send an audio recording. I did get verified this time round for political ads or other comfortzone stretching topics. Not that political ads will ever be run, at times something shared might be polarizing.

[@San-wl5tw]

Thank you for sharing. Did not know about children’s toys

[@tonycstech]

This guy: Google does not listen to me. KZbin: I heard everything you said. Me 👀

[@s.v.2796]

Thank you. All I'm saying is thank you.

[@NoEgg4u]

Another excellent video.

[@robbraxmantech]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@DeliciousDeBlair]

[@maranatharoric]

Wow, thanks for sharing the info. Really eye opener. God bless you

[@PAPAF0X]

Thank you so much to share your informations and knowledge to open our eyes.. i’m glad to have met your channel..

[@1disciplemichael]

Thank you. For someone who has done everything wrong in the past regarding internet privacy, what is my best hope and course of action now?

[@llibressal]

Hey Rob, I'd like to see you do a video on what kinds of risks are involved with using my old phones(no sim card), for connecting to public WIFI at the airport or coffee shop etc.

[@ambilaevus7607]

Me too.

[@TheTektronik]

I don't even use the inbuilt Google assistant on my phone.

[@steveH384]

when i used to use twitter, i noticed they would periodically release the phone number i was banned with. Just throwing that out there.

[@yiguanas812]

Upvote this if you think Rob should try to get onto Joe Rogan's show.

[@midnightentertainment9331]

he shoukd

[@midnightentertainment9331]

he should

[@kefsound]

No thanks!

[@oaktreeman4369]

I was once told that cctv cameras include voice recognition, so be careful what you say in public places. If you want to say something you shouldn't, speak in Livonian or ancient Sumerian or some other equally obscure language.

[@ingrids27ec39]

Whooahhh ! Scary stuff ! The world tech powers are much darker than I ever knew.

[@LostInThe0zone]

Ok, so you are in all likelihood correct. At this point, what could possibly be done to protect our own voice print? Even if we have never used voice controls, our voice has already been captured.

[@rememberpalestine-uyghurs-2918]

This guy is like a teacher for me

[@jeivameika1446]

I was just getting ready to get an Alexa. Thank you for this video!

[@robbraxmantech]

OMG! Don't get Alexa!

[@marckaus7318]

I learned even more 2day... Thank you...

[@1983XR500]

Even if I go de-googled, I'm potentially still being tracked on everyone else's devices through ambient sounds. Great

[@SleeplessinOC]

Yes most of us will be .

[@kevinchastain727]

people are also sending the content of their computers to cloud based backup systems, so who has access to this information ???

[@UltimateBargains]

Voice recognition and facial recognition will merge to provide automated lip reading. Your visible lip movements can be interpreted at a distance by recognition software. At first, the tech will not be real time, but later with more processing power, real time interpreting.

[@onepalproductions]

Good information, thanks for sharing.

[@mwl41223]

Which carrier is the safest? Thank you for all the info and expertise you share to help us stay safe and retain privacy!

[@robbraxmantech]

All carriers are able to spy on you (CALEA law in the USA). But this I consider a state level threat

[@christopherdfrias]

Your voice is all over Google w these videos.

[@Guitargasm1000]

I'm relieved. I paid off my t-mo OnePlus 7 pro. Getting unlock code soon. Unlock bootloader and install e-rom. Only privacy os that supports my brand at this time. I don't want anything google near my ecosystem

[@RandyRandersonthefamous]

It's crazy how when you bring this up people say dumb things like terrorist type thing as a joke, but the reality is while they say that they *are* being recorded, permanently. They can't accept reality.
