This. This is the problem.^

And I believe yootoob harvests your internet activity, you know, spies on you, then uses that stolen information to advertise things that a robot thinks you will be most likely to buy be it a guitar, a new mattress, a medicine, or a presidential candidate.

What do you like about The Orange Pig? Seems the only thing you Trump enthusiasts can point to is that he's not Hillary.
 
Trump's campaign team know that, right-now, TV is full with A) Democratic primaries and B) Trump's impeachment investigations. So they need to counter-attack. They alos know that most of the folks wathing the news on TV are older folks and that Trump is pretty popular among them. And they know that younger generations are on Youtube, even if most of them are anti-Trymp, some are still undecided so there's vote to win there...

Hey Johan. I'm glad you asked.
To the 1st part of your comment- Yes that makes sense, They are playing Trump ads because of elections and the fake impeachment.
5 years or so ago I would have thought the same thing.
But reality is a tough thing to swallow, and the truth is its all just part of the show. The scripted show, that way too many people think is real. Think they have a choice.

Trump will be the "winner" in 2020 unless they revive Hiliary from the dead to come "save us all".
(They do that in comic books all the time).
Trump won't "win" because he will get more votes......no no no no.
He will "win" because he's doing a great job in his acting role. Even better than Barry Soetoro did in his.
Thanks to Trumps great acting ability the ratings are"through the roof". People love a great villain.

To answer your very good question:
The artificial intelligence which tracks our internet activity does not know whether or not zeeblo is pro Trump or anti Trump.
(I am getting soo sick of typing the word trump).
Nor does it care. It only knows that zeeblo is paying attention therefore he gets the ads.

Thanks to internet spying (another great and very profitable result of Sept. 11th) businesses can market specific goods to people who will be most likely purchase them. therefore making the maximum profit for the money they spend on advertising.

If you look up bath soap you will get bath soap ads in the future.
If you look up cars you will get car ads in the future.
If you look up furniture you will get ads for Lemon Pledge.

ect ect.

When you strip it all down to the core , all the human race is are consumers to be exploited and profited from.
Slaves basically (And the best slaves are the ones who do not know they are slaves).
We are consumers to be used for profit by those who control everything. This applies to everything including news, sports, ..... and politics.
And what better way than too exploit us than through the medium of internet?
Nothing is free and when you sign in, log on, and click I Agree you are simply consenting to be spied on and harvested.

Now we have come to a point in time when most people, especially the younger ones, are going through life zoned out on little electronic devices like zombies. Completely unaware that that device is nothing more than a means to exploit them for profit.
 
I have an ad-blocker.

Bravo, good sir! You managed to add nothing at all to the conversation, but still pretty much render the entire thing obsolete!

(I'm not saying that in a dickish way, I think this is a brilliant post and it cracked me up!)

Edit - Would rep you if I could but it won't let me.

Is it possible to block the ads they play before your video on you tube?
I know you can pay yootoob/google not to play ads which is why I'm led to believe ad blockers can't remove them.

And ad blocker or not your internet history is still being harvested on most of the big websites.

I don't see that. Do you sign into YouTube (a Google company) using an I.D. and password? I watch YouTube a fair amount on my connected TV. But because I don't use (or have) an I.D. on ANY Google service, tracking me and offering up "relevant" ads to my TV, computer, phone, iPad, etc. isn't as easy.

You've been targeted, bro. The boys and girls at Google are "enhancing" your user experience. :D

You got it.

Before I'd use an Android phone with Facebook and Twitter loaded or send email through Gmail, I'd just take the curtains down in my house and remove the locks from my doors.

Wait what? Are you saying not only are they using our web history to "enhance our user experience" but also the content of our gmail?
I figure bookface and tweeter ect. are used for that stuff but gmail as well? If so I'm not surprised.

Yep. Pretty much every Google service that I know of allows Google to have a peek. Some businesses don't allow the use of Gmail for sensitive business communications or they block it (along with Yahoo mail, Hotmail and others) from company servers. Since Verizon took over Yahoo, they're probably at least as bad as the "Don't Be Evil" kids at Google.

This is the latest news that really pissed me off:

Google Is Collecting Personal Health Data Of Millions of People

Google is engaged with one of the country’s largest health-care systems to collect and crunch the detailed personal health information of millions of Americans across 21 states.

The initiative, code-named “Project Nightingale,” appears to be the biggest in a series of efforts by Silicon Valley giants to gain access to personal health data and establish a toehold in the massive health-care industry. Amazon.com Inc., Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corp. are also aggressively pushing into health care, though they haven’t yet struck deals of this scope.

Google began Project Nightingale in secret last year with St. Louis-based Ascension, the second-largest health system in the U.S., with the data sharing accelerating since summer, according to internal documents.

The data involved in the initiative encompasses lab results, doctor diagnoses and hospitalization records, among other categories, and amounts to a complete health history, including patient names and dates of birth.

Neither patients nor doctors have been notified. At least 150 Google employees already have access to much of the data on tens of millions of patients, according to a person familiar with the matter and the documents.



No, no... this doesn't violate HIPAA. No need for our busy critters in Congress to waste time investigating this. They have so much more important things to do. I just wish that I had enough money to buy myself a politician. I'd keep him or her in my backyard, feed them twice a day and only beat them on Saturdays.

I don't see any ads on Youtube when I use my laptop with the ad-blocker I have. If I use my phone, I do see ads because I don't have any type of ad-blocker on there. I'm not using an ad-blocker to block my internet history, I just don't want to be bombarded with ads.

I read it. Funny how its supposedly a Wall Street Journal article on a Microsoft News website and it seems to be blowing the whistle on microsoft.
Lots of info in the article, too much for me to tackle right now. Thanks for posting.

I usually access YouTube from my TV and over the past 3 or 4 days, all I've seen are Mike Bloomerberg ads. Those are the only political ads that I've seen.

I was hoping for a Kamala Harris nipple slip ad, but she went and dropped outta the race today. :(
