Edward Bernays, often hailed as the "Father of Public Relations," was a master propagandist, not a pioneer of PR. His work during WWI exposed him to the potency of propaganda, inspiring him to apply its techniques to private industry. His most notable achievement was encouraging women to smoke publicly, linking it to feminism through the "Torches of Freedom" campaign. Bernays' legacy lies in his application of Freudian psychoanalysis to create associations between products and existing desires to influence public opinion, shaping the advertising industry as we know it today.

Intro How's it working out for Randy, de-Googling himself? The hardest part • Realizing how much of my data they hold ○ And then planning to "take out" my data and place it somewhere as reliable. ○ Not likely as reliable, being that Google has 100's of thousands of dollars. • I feel like Google has weaponized Linux to fuel their surveillance machine. De-Googling is much harder than I had realized • There have been articles for a long time, regarding getting rid of Google from your life, long before I found this something I wanted to achieve. ○ I want to make clear that I think Google no longer a good company, who allegedly spies on their employees, discouraging worker organization - before firing them. I won't get into politics on unions or any of that stuff because I don't feel I'm the most educated person on that subject manner. The part about Google that bothers me is lack of privacy, knowing everything about a person by crawling for our data in order to survive. ○ There is a good write-up on How-To-Geek's site from Harry Guinness that touches on how removing Google from your life is nearly impossible. ○ Ads served to you are often from Google and it's hard to avoid - What I did about this is: § Pi-Hole. I think this is a good start for anyone that wants to shoo away Google a little bit, as a start. • Google also loves some good censoring on things they don't like, such as crushing negative stories about themselves, penalizing anti-Google articles. But, I thought that they would get me the information about things I really want to know - which should be everything, because we use google to search for everything, right? Not me anymore. I've removed all traces of Chrome browser. ○ There are countless demonstrations of Google censorship, and it doesn't matter which political party you're are part of - If Google doesn't like it, it may just magically, not exist. Top 10 Ways Google Does Evil - Listverse Free styling some ideas Off the top of my head, I'll share a couple things that I planning on doing in order to gradually taper off "the Google". Trying to not buy their products (more difficult than it sounds, since Alphabet buys out so many companies). Google is just one of the 13 subsidiaries of Alphabet Inc!. Before Google was under Alphabet, you may recall all of the mergers and acquisitions that happened. They own a lot, and these acquisitions will fuel their data collection domination.

We put the tinfoil hats away and have rational discussions about the future of 5G and the IoT for consumers as well as businesses. Will we get flying cars finally? Are we in the future yet?

Intro Who owns your photos once you upload them to “free” sites such as Facebook or Google Photos? Randy rattles off some stats and goes to bed. Facebook 1.59 Billion log into Facebook each day. – Out of all of those Facebook Profiles, there are 83 million fake ones – Hacking your aunt's account, creating a clone profile and trying to add you as a friend. 300 Million photos are uploaded each day. Source: https://zephoria.com/top-15-valuable-facebook-statistics/ Who owns those photos that you voluntarily upload to sites such as Facebook and Google Photos? You do. How-To Geek did a write-up on this a couple of years ago and boiled it down to: “ Facebook gets a “non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license” to your photos. To sum up, this all means that: Facebook doesn't own your content, you do. Facebook's terms of service sound scary but really aren't. Your privacy settings control how Facebook uses your photos. “ Closing Remarks The main thing to keep in mind for all of these “Free” products is the phrase that you've probably already heard…something along the lines of: “If the product is free, then you're the product”. Think about that: Online companies like Google earn their money from ADVERTISING! Also know that they suck up any data they can like a massive vacuum, growing this advertising beast exponentially. If Google (and Facebook) know everything about everybody (it's getting to the point where it's hard to avoid them), they can advertise to you very efficiently. Combine this situation with Google who controls the world's most popular Browser: Chrome – and then making it harder for users to block ads.
