This was included with the privacy statement you clicked though when you got your device, you were given the option to not allow this.

Short: If you've ever interacted with Google Now using your voice, every instance of your voice interaction is recorded and archived and you can see all of it here.

what

damn my English is fucking terrible

My default assumption is to assume everything I do will be saved in some kind of database, and then replicated between thousands of machines, forever to remain.

...

It was a single paragraph statement asking if you wanted to send data to Google to improve functionality that loaded when you first got your phone

2008:
FUCK YOU, GOOGLE!! Listening to my conversations all the time? Recording? Keeping forever? It's official - no more Google products in my household!! No self-respecting person should give up this much of their privacy! Never again!

2016:
Lel, guis! I can listen to all of my recordings stored on Google's servers! Isn't it cool? Oh wow! They also have my location! And a map of where I have been in the last 5 years!! THIS IS AMAZING!! Based Google!

How times have changes...

>It's official - no more Google products in my household!! No self-respecting person should give up this much of their privacy! Never again!

You can't avoid YouTube.

Mines empty, I "paused" all of my histories a long time ago.

same

>all it takes is one click to disable the botnet

:^)

what do you use youtube for? im seriously curious

the only times i ever even try is sometimes with embedded vids on 4chin but 9 out of 10 times they are blocked and i dont bother to go through the effort of watching it just so some user and make a retarded point

most videos i watch online are porn or movies and youtube doesnt do either

How else is it supposed to learn to recognize you?

>"disable"
It just disables showing you the recordings.

I visited the link but it wanted me to sign up or some shit. Don't tell me you goys actually signed up an account with Jewgle

r u serious?

alexa.com/topsites

i have spent more time on youtube then probably any other website, and i use the internet all day

google is pretty much the center of everything at this point

What was the most significant thing that you have learned on YouTube today?

you didnt answer my question user. i asked you what you are specifically doing on youtube since i cant even imagine anything other than watching cat videos on repeat

i know you are a faggot brainless nu-male and that youtube is very popular already, im just curious what youre doing

and google execs have been to obongo white house like 180 times in 8 years, everyone other top tech company has been like 2-3

If anyone really wants to oppose all these privacy-invading measures, they should be actively crowd-funding new technologies and systems that can attempt to replace these things. Talk is cheap.

>mob justice is always right

My Little pony is a nice show

They record way more than that

I kinda enjoy that google stores every search I've done, it's pretty nice looking back old searches.

No, I'm not being ironic, sometimes you just want to know something you searched back then but can't find it now, and history is a fucking godsend.

watched MIT opencourseware video about artificial intelligence, leaned a little

nash equilibrium and reduced row echelon matrix form

then again i'm not that guy, i don't use youtube with an account and i could get those videos from some other mirrors if i wanted

I recommend coursera

r u serious?

i am subscribed to over 200 different channels so it's hard to described what i'm doing,

i'll take a screenshot if u want

ocw is cool but hardly a youtube exclusive thing
most people watch low quality music videos, stupid reviewers, dumb ecelebs, game videos and other inane wastes of time

Good thing I don't use this

>get invited to my normie friend's house
>she's living with her normie bf
>they literally spend two hours watching funny youtube videos on their tv

yeah post a screen maybe i'll be pleasantly surprised

out of context fallacy, you nigger

> i asked you what you are specifically doing on youtube
uhh watching the some of the billion hours of content that are uploaded

i don't think i have watched a cat video since 2008

youtube is the best website on the internet behind www.google.com imo

>rap
all respect = lost

i can't tell if u r serious or just baiting

I sounded great OP, you gotta have them good genes for the bonnet to consume.

i have a feeling you are b8

I don't see the problem it's just my OK google requests

im surprised people like you really exist. maybe im just getting old

yea, i think the same thing of furries

u seem like ur over 30 and are not with the times

Not cool google... Not cool

kek

u should check out how much the top youtubers get paid if u don't think youtube is a thing

that like saying you should buy lottery tickets because look up much the winners make!

im just surprised how stupid this generation is. ill get used to it i just need some time to adjust

i know damn well it's a thing, doesn't mean it's not fucking stupid

I'm not surprised, go to a college or a school, niggers watching funny youtube videos, ylvis music, youtube poop, mlg videos, thread simulators, actual shows, advertising, youtubers which talk about stuff.
Aand, it depends actually, there are two ways of learning now, watching videos or reading.

I can't even dap you up

i am guessing you haven't tried VR porn either?

also, you boomers fucked up the USA

there is a reason it's the second most visited website (behind google search engine)

because it's fucking amazing

why do you think im a boomer? im just making fun of you for bring brainless monkeys who literally seek out advertising and bullshit on your own time to watch. im starting to think that corporations were successful in brainwashing people to consume nonsense

I SOUND LIKE A FAG

you watch too much anime crack on youtube

What do you do on your own time?

So does this mean google has no recordings of me?

Welcome to the internet, you're in the year 2016 btw if u haven't realized

So it's gotten to the point where you're questioned if you don't squander your time on idiotic ad-filled entertainment.

you misspelled google earth. ALWAYS WATCHING

They do, but you have no access to them. Similar to when you turn off your location - you are the one who does not get to see that log, but Google has it.

Do you spend all your time either in irc, Sup Forums, programming as a hobby? Reading fiction or non-fiction?
Blogging?

>this thread
Jesus Christ

I sound so nasally and dorky.

watching soap oper...i mean the new coolest youtubers like all the hip young kids of course. that and reaction videos

>he is perfectly fine with being recorded by Google - the #1 global privacy violator

God damn.

>not disabling this shit

jeez i sound cringe

I'm not sure how you came to such a conclusion, but okay.

Studying, working, being with family and friends, going out, working out, cooking and sleeping. I suggest that you read Flow by Csikszentmihalyi, it's been shown on many different peer reviewed studies that people show their lowest levels of concentration, attention and engagement when consuming entertainment. Sure those studies were about TV but youtube is the same thing. They become like zombies, dumber and dumber.

Do you think Bill Gates watches funny videos on youtube? Linus? Stallman? Trump? Musk? Do you think they wasted hours and hours watching tv when they were young?
I invest my time on myself, I protect my time from the harmful media.

You could also read On the shortness of life by Seneca. People who squander their time like that always regret it when they're old.

When Voice & Audio Activity is off, voice searches will be stored using anonymous identifiers. This information won't be saved to your Google Account even if you're signed in.

it saves it anonymously thats way fucking better

I knew this guy, that, didn't leave internet, beyond facebook and youtube.

He said that because I often linked him external sites, as a source, but he didn't like them because it's "a unsafe internet", unknown websites give you virus, you know..

I didn't know what to say, I realized that youtube and facebook provided everything he needed, plus he spend THE WHOLE DAY AT THE COMPUTER.

I cringed so hard, I didn't know what to think of him, and I eventually stopped talking to him, what the fuck!

...

I basically only use 4chimps and youtube.

It was rather simple. Upon discovering that you are being recorded, you were not at all horrified. Instead your dorky-sounding voice was the only circumstance that truly bothered you in this situation.

So my point is exactly the same.

>nothing there

Wow what a surprise, I didn't ignore everything like a complete retard.

>not using youtube-dl

You jumped to conclusions, yes.

y-you know, that youtube gives informative teaching videos, tv also if you know where to look.

But I do recognize there's plenty of useless entertainment there.

>Its a billion snippets of me asking my smartwatch for the weather

Neat

How do you learn a new language without videos, I mean the writing part is covered by books, but only audios are hard to come by

Have you at least "paused" the recording? I assume that you did not remove anything Google-related from your device, because you surely can not be bothered to go this far, no matter how much data flows from your device directly to Google.

So, nice weather today, huh?

girl shaving her vajj

> Nothing
Feels good mang

Yeah sure, youtube isn't inherently bad. I thought we were talking about the normie part of youtube.
It's funny because on all actually good youtube playlists (mostly OCW or EDX), the first video always has like 500000 views and the latter ones have no more than 20000 so it's not a valid argument that people spend their time on the good side of youtube.

>While voice recordings can be “paused,” they’ll be reactivated the next time you use Virtual Assistant, Voice Search, or say “OK Google.” Which kind of sucks! So stay diligent about deleting stuff, especially if you say anything embarrassing and/or incriminating to your phone.

The biggest thing to me is that it is always recording 100% of the time. Most of mine start with OK Google.

jesus christ you sound like a faggot, you must be fun at parties

How does "Ok Google" work, if not by recording everysecond of your time :^)

source on that?

Nothing wrong with it as long as you're not a mindless consumer, there are many good uses of youtube. But I'm just saying that most people waste their time watching stupid shit.
I know it because most people I know are like that, and because if it weren't true ecelebs and reviewers wouldn't make that much money.

you sound like just another person who will never achieve greatness.

...

4/10 - not too bad, kiddo! Keep it up, and you will be a master rustler in no time!

I'm sure I have way more fun at parties than you do.

most people aren't rational, humble, greatly successful. So why the fuck are you surpised.
