One concept that you have to understand is that all FAGMANS accounts are linked, there is no difference to the interested agents between your Facebook, and Amazon account, they are all linked to you.
Most social media and other apps, services etc, require your phone number or email. Have you used a different one for each?

The first step is the identification of demographics.
>Pic related
about a campaign Signal led on facbeook and Instagram (facebook owned) where they showed people directed ads based on facebook's cathegorization.
Countrary to what people believe, these ads do not find out information about you.
The ads are created and sent for a specific target. Facebook knows you are a pregnant woman with an interest in fitness, but the advertiser merely sends out an ad to pregnant women who have an interest in fitness.

How this is done is dependent on the site.
Facebook has groups. What those groups are about is reported by the users through tags, in the interest of being found by people who want to be a part of a sports group.
Then, you go and join those groups. Depending on your interest, which is calculated based on your constancy of participation, your interest is ranked.
You have a set of interests derivated likely from group belonging, as well as likes and other mechanisms.
Instagram does this mostly through your likes.
youtube obviously keeps tracks of what videos you watch. These videos have tags.
You can make a weighted accumulation of all tags you've consumed:
Take the amount of time you watched a video, and assign that as a weight to a tag, then add those tags together and you get: [ "puppies": 3.6, "metal": 2.4, "republican": 1.2, "democrat": -0.6, ... ]
This is known as a profile. These tags are incredibly useful to categorize you. More so if they are weighted. They quite literally are worth their bits in gold.

It is unknown to me how other social media do it, but every single one without exception does this.
There are no arbitrary elements in a social media webpage.

>With smartphones
the issue is darker, and much more crude.
Smartphones can tell where you are through GPS or telephone signal towers triangulation.
Smartphones never turn off, most have a BIOS battery, meaning removing the battery does nothing for a while.
Most don't even have removable batteries.
All have bluetooth, which is an absurdly insecure technology.
Smartphones are almost always connected to the internet.

If you install LineageOS with NO google services, you will notice a two week battery life, or one week maybe.
This is because (((google services))) are surveillance.
Most apps will behave badly and some will stop working.
(((Banking))) apps refuse to work on rooted devices or those without google services installed.

>Smartwatches
are the logical next step and are worse.
They know how many steps you've taken.
Your heartbeat.
What notifications you care about and which you won't even open.

They could predict illnesses.

>Smart-tvs
are less of a menace, as they do two things, provide mind-numbing entertainment, and are aware of what entertainment you watch.
Some have cameras though. Most have microphones on the controller. Those are always on.

In short, a meta-account is created for you out of all accounts and devices you use, including those without an account.
Facebook calls them shadow-accounts, for people mentioned on their platform, but who haven't created an account yet.
And then, information is linked to it, collected, as if milking a cow. Because you are cattle to them.

Many services promise anonymity, by telling you your data is anonymized.
There exist paid services where data is cross-linked automatically and de-anonymized.
Your data may be linked to an anonymous number, but it is still identifying data.
After all, there is only one person in this planet with your exact behaviour patterns.

So, to stop most of the damage, stop using your smartphone for any nu-necessary tasks, stop engaging social media.

In case you were wondering.

This data is analized through AI, and Big Data. Go look up a tutorial on python for how to do this.
The tutorials will speak about means, correlations, and patterns.
This is a very complex field, so to be short, I will give you its applications instead of how it is done.
Also, to be frank, I don't understand half of it myself.

The best example is weather prediction models, because of how open the whole affair is:
Firstly, data is gathered by hundreds of weather stations, many maintained by hobbyists, and students at universities.
These gather humidity, air pressure, wind direction and speed data, and many others.
This data can be visualized, for wind data in spain: (spain has a lot of wind activity and very interesting as well.)
https://www.xcweather.co.uk/ES/observations
Wind data can be correlated with seasons, elevation, and the other factors such as pressure. It could also have to do with how much greenery exists in an area.
Then along comes a Big Data analyst. with a computer, takes all of this data, and spends weeks trying to find correlations.
Such correlations as temperature and presence of trees. Trees keep the area slightly cooler.
So from this correlation we can derive that cities should plant trees on walkways, this is better for people!
This data can also be used to create a model.
>At any instance in which "this and that" happens, this other thing will also happen 90% of the time.
When a cold front is observed, certain winds and rains can be predicted in it's wake.
Tornadoes are predicted like this as well.

So how do we jump to predicting the purchase habits of most pregnant women who like fitness?

Enter the silicon revolution.
Your smartphone alone is more powerful than the entirety of computational power of the NASA in the 70s.
Dates back in the 90s were stored as a series of numbers. To save space, the year used 2 numbers alone instead of 4.
Today, I can store dates in their whole string format and nobody gives a shit; such as "The first of October of the year two thousand and thirty-nine".
It would be a stupid idea but I could do it, and if I did go this stupid route, I could parse and use this information with minimal impact to my app.
This is because computers are comically overpowered. Most people subestimate how absurdly powerful computers are, it isn't even funny.

So, couple this capacity to store arbitrary amounts of data, with asburd processing power.
Social media harvests lots of data, even the arbitrary kind, and then people with the job description of Big Data anlists come in and tell the executives, "here, I found a pattern, now gibs me the reward."
This data is analized real time, packaged, and sold to whoever pays more for it under a convenient subscription model.
Imagine as a company that sells shoes, that you know what trends are in vogue, and how many people you can expect to enter your store based on who you appeal to.
Or even better yet, who buys the most shoes!

Apparently, it is this mythical pregnant woman who likes crossfit, for some inane reason.
Nobody knows why, they just know that is how it is. The numbers do not lie.

And AI is a step forwards in this same direction.

Isn't tech good though?
There is a virtue to using technology.
Technology is indeed freedom, if used right.
You can network with fellow /pol/lacks, and create online communities that investigate globopedo together through the power of internet autism.
You can also video-conference with your grandmother from across the world. I've never seen them so happy other than when I was personally there.

The purpose is to use technology, while not letting tech giants use you through technology.

>But isn't this fight hopeless?
>It's better to be done with 80% than to never deliver 100%.
Mark Zuckerberg said it himself.
Tech is curious, in that computers are very straightforwards, they only do what you tell them to.
So it is very complicated and difficult to get them to do everything with perfect adaptability. However, it is easy to get them to solve most of your problem.
Inversely, it is impossible to escape ALL surveillance. You will eventually have to do something that involves what we tech people lovingly call the "botnet".
But, it is relatively easy to fight the majority of the battle.
What's more, fighting most of the battle will make you invisible, because most people don't fight; and because the data harvesters can only ever conduct surveillance on most people, and only on those who are compliant and collaborative.
There is very little if any monetary gain in surveillance of someone who doesn't use social media.

Unless you're labelled a dangerous element to the state. But that's not what we want to do, we want to get rid of the nasty harvesting done off of our backs.

>How do I get rid of Zuck's cucking?
Firstly, adopt a liefstyle approach to no-tech.
If you throw your smartphone into a lake, tomorrow you'll be back to using it.
Simply put, take baby steps, and then take bigger steps.
Purge any negatives of technology while keeping the positives.
If you use social media for activism, remember not to lurk, post actively.
Lurking on social media is what "leaks" your likes and information.

Here's an unexhaustive list:
* Smartphone
* Smart *: watch, tv, fucking fridges for gods sake what the fuck.
* IoT, devices which have no need to connect to the internet, but do anyways.
* Social media: one at a time.
* Send EU GDPR request to delete accounts on social media. Contact support directly.
* Same for online games, your blizzard or steam account.
* Swirch to linux.
* Have a separate windows machine with epic games store, blizzard, steam and game on it, nothing else.
* Alternatively, stop gaming and lift.
* Switch from Chrome to Ungoogled-Chromium: https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium#downloads
* Switch from firefox to Librewolf
* Use uBlock origin, (never disable the google analitics filter).
* Stop storing cookies on your browser, delete history on exit: https://www.tipsdotcom.com/chrome-delete-history-on-exit.html
* This means you will have to log in to your accounts every time, so use a password manager: https://keepassxc.org/
* Replace your software with foss and or decentralized options: https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/foss-software-alternatives-popular-proprietary-software
There are many more.
You could also plant a garden, it will make you more independant, ground you on what is real, instead of the addictive nature of social media and smartphones.

Whatever you do, remember that drastic changes are difficult to hold on to.
Take tiny steps and move your emails to tutanota this week, that is a good first step.
Then next week, walk further.

Getting off the internet is most important.

OP, those are a lot of good advises and great info. It'll be a nice walk for those willing to step out of the social media nets and it's worth it, they must realize it ended up becoming an addiction, and the fuckers running the show know it, and don't want users to drop it. About that gaming thing, users are being farmed too, biggest companies in that industry are Sony, Microsoft, Tencent, Nintendo, Activision, Valve Corporation. And what do you think they do? pic related is a position in valve's psychology team, but I doubt anons here play much, so just remember to tell others how shitty that industry is. Make sure you create small communities with people that you know in real life and do your best to take your friends and families out of the social media nets, try to implement your own services, it can be done, it's not easy, but I bet you have a friend or two who are willing to help you out.

Op, watching youtube is fine. I watch tutorial vids and interests. It's part of education. Unless you're watching political shit, and history, it's absolute shit, yes I think we agree. Do not insult us by calling someone a hedonist because they watch car repair tutorials, computer programming, athletic work outs, the list goes on and on.

Sounds like you just discovered nothing is private and secure anymore. But you're not all wrong. It's good to be aware and up to date with the basics of tech.

Real, total war has become information war. it is
being fought by suble electric informational media
--under cold conditions, and constantly. The cold
war is the real war front--a surround--involving
everybody--all the time--everywhere. Whenever
hot wars are necessary these days, we conduct
them in the backyards of the world with the old
technologies. These wars are happenings, tragic
games, It is no longer convenient, or suitable, to
use the latest technologies for fighting our wars,
because the latest technologies have rendered
war meaningless. The hydrogen bomb is history's
exclamation point. It ends an age-long sentence of
manifest violence!

Why are so many people dying in their sleep?

61.22GHz endogenous opiate-induced respiratory depression = brain and heart ischemia.

It's the same mechanism as an opiate overdose, just from endogenous opiates. When you're asleep you can neither feel your body dying nor notice you aren't breathing.

Both the 5G towers and many devices emit this frequency. For some reason phone manufacturers aren't advertising that they use this frequency, which is called WiGIG among other things.

I dont know if you are an american but you still have Ebay at your service

Making plans is difficult when you live in a police state.

Everything is illegal.

You are not allowed to go outside. You don't know if you can buy a house because you don't know if the government will close your business.

You are not allowed to travel or escape.

The state can indefinitely detain you without trial, grope you, kill you, torture you, or destroy or steal your property at any time. You are not allowed to have free speech, the government wiretaps you, you cannot go to church, and you cannot own a gun.

Americans are now just slaves like North Koreans are.

>>88504
>Blah blah I don't know anything about America blah blah
AIDSkike, the United States government doesn't give a fuck enough to wiretap us. They're too busy sanctioning Russia to fuck our gas prices and rolling out green agendas to fuck our food prices. This is happening across Europe as the U.N. follows Biden's dumb ass.

I own a shitty flip-phone but only because it was forced on me by my service provider with the clarification they would be canceling my old keyboard-slide-out. I think the old wasn't 6G. Regardless, I never do anything "sketchy" (as it would be to our ZOG overlords)

Ionizing radiation is what damages your DNA. Television waves, radio and cell-phones are low level non-ionizing radiation. Your body is constantly subjected to cosmic rays. Radionuclides such as radium, uranium and potassium are in soil, rocks and food. Long story short, you can't escape radiation. There's no point in trying.

One of the best opsec tips is simply FORWARD SECRECY. Only tell people what you want them to know (or deceptively believe) what you want them to. As toxic as it may sound, little white lies here and there can throw of a good witch hunt too.
