@bigboyshaun Nothing to hide? 🤔

Everything you do electronically is collected. The challenge is to make connections to you and the info. Pharmacies and doctors offices also sell data, but they can only identify you by zip code, not name. AI is used to try to take the pieces of a puzzle and try to figure out if it is the same person or not. Grocery store cards track what you buy. They even monitor a woman's menstrual cycle. You'd be surprised what crumbs companies will pay for. I wish they would make some laws about this. But, they won't. You wouldn't allow a person to follow you all day, taking picture, making notes, collecting your trash, and copying your receipts. Why would you allow computers to do that. There has been a shortage of psychologists in the U.S. and now there is a competition for graduates from marketing companies. Don't you think it is a little odd for an advertising company to need so many psychologists?

@NewKidInTown Its weirder when you actually buy something and you get nonstop ads for it. Its like "hello, I already bought it dummies!"
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@MySecretIdentity1 goes to show the AI isn’t perfect...yet
MySecretIdentity1 · 46-50, M
@NewKidInTown At least not ones for sale to marketers. Who knows what DARPA has.

I want a stalker. Just somebody to check in once a day and say “good morning beautiful!” Or even a goodnight or go to hell would be nice.

@Keepitsimple Eh, screw you lady. You have high expectations. 😆
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Keepitsimple Ambitious? Me?
(Was that mysterious enough for ya?)
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@SW-User ha! That what I need, some one who’s not afraid to lower the bar enough for me to get over 😁

@boopboop awwww 😉
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@boopboop Ah! Now I get it. You think I was calling YOU a clown. Nah, I just meant in general I don’t like tyrants or clowns :)

Of course it's being collected and sold. Just like it was with the previous incarnation The Experience Project.

@NewKidInTown Anytime companies can get a peak in to what people really think, their interests and proclivities, that's currency. And the background of those running EP was in AI in the workplace in more of an HR capacity.
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Ynotisay and then they went belly up
Ynotisay · M
@NewKidInTown I'm not sure if longevity was their goal. Not sure about the current SW team either. This is one of the co-owners.

Wanna write a story? (; Everything is recorded, but they don't care about you until they are forced to...(;
Ladyred · 46-50, F
@NewKidInTown I am...
Ladyred · 46-50, F
@NewKidInTown I also am a ghostwriter...(;
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Ladyred Ah, I’m not surprised.
I am also an editor ;)

NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@smiler2012 good advice, not sure if it’s enough though
*ducks out of the room..
Peaches · F
Oh, I AM watched and monitored by my hackers from Pakistan and India! 😎 Screw 'em...there's nothing for them to take anymore. I doubt very much the staff has time to follow each and everyone of us and wouldn't want to!🤭
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Peaches WAIT! Hold on...I think I see something!

Never mind....it was just a troll :(
Peaches · F

NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Peaches And they look so cute too!

I know we are. If for nothing else, the adverts are tailored to our interests.
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@SW-User Is that why I’m getting McDs and DQ? 😁
Adamski24 · 41-45, M
Big brother is always listen and watching.
The saying curtains have eyes and walls have ears is true.
Our smart devices are always listening and watching even whem switch off
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Adamski24 sometimes I wonder if our smart devices are too smart. Are they for our convenience...or theirs?
Adamski24 · 41-45, M
@NewKidInTown this is true.
You into the account of the smart devices like Google or alexa ask it everything it's recorded you surprised at the private and personal things it's backed up to its memory
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Adamski24 is anything precious anymore???
Niloo · 46-50, F
Not any more than other social media
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Niloo people tend to share only the best or absolute worst of their lives. I find here on SW you get more of the day to day thoughts. I like that. Feels more real.
Niloo · 46-50, F
@NewKidInTown
Exactly
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@Niloo Better for ones mental health, reality vs fantasy
I am just not that interesting. I don't even consider this a likely, not by anything big brother related.
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@TwiddlerofThumbs interesting thought. VERY interesting! ;)
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
They do but it's not like one person is studying you, it's usually just an algorithm that picks it up. However if you're unlucky and get popular on here the chances that the admins (especially if you're a female) will perv on your messages and images is quite high. :P

Pretty sure the admin has seen my dick by now. He went into my private messages and deleted an image I sent, hand picked it even, he must have seen my dick at least once lol.
smiler2012 · 56-60
@MartinTheFirst where you told by admin they had been deleted and told not to be a naughty boy 😋
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@smiler2012 no he just deleted it because it made him look bad :D it was a screenshot of the shit he does on here

If they are I am surely on my way to the Looney bin
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@SW-User on the positive side, Bugs, Daffy et al may be already there waiting for you :)
I wouldn’t be surprised, although realistically I don’t imagine I’m so important that much would be done with it. If I really thought about it, I probably [b]would[/b] start feeling paranoid so I don’t entertain the idea too much. 😒
NewKidInTown · 51-55, M
@bijouxbroussard I don’t think I’m important enough to be worth any monetary value to anyone. I don’t really shop that much 🤷‍♂️
No need to wonder. I assume I most certainly am.
