00:00:00
If you think your phone is just sitting
00:00:02
quietly in your pocket, it's not. Your
00:00:05
phone is listening, watching, tracking,
00:00:09
predicting, and collecting data on you
00:00:11
right now, even when you're not using
00:00:14
it. And today, I'm going to explain
00:00:17
exactly how and why is far worse than
00:00:21
most people realize. Hi, I'm Carl B.
00:00:24
Johnson, SISO, author and cyber security
00:00:27
instructor. And this is one of the
00:00:30
biggest risk I see every single day.
00:00:35
Let's start with the obvious. Your phone
00:00:38
tracks everything. Where you go, who you
00:00:41
talk to, what you search, what you buy,
00:00:44
what time you wake up, what time you
00:00:46
sleep, and even how fast you walk. And
00:00:50
here's the part nobody wants to admit.
00:00:53
You gave every app on your phone
00:00:55
permission to do it. Not because you
00:00:58
wanted to, but because you tapped allow
00:01:02
just to make a pop-up go away. But
00:01:05
here's where it gets scary. Your
00:01:08
microphone and camera can be activated
00:01:10
without your knowledge through apps
00:01:13
you've already installed. No, it's not
00:01:16
the government listening 247. It's much
00:01:20
simpler than that. It's advertisers.
00:01:23
It's data brokers. It's app developers
00:01:26
who make money by selling your behavior.
00:01:29
They're building a psychological profile
00:01:31
on you, your fears, your habits, your
00:01:35
routines, your preferences,
00:01:38
everything they need to predict what
00:01:41
you'll do next and how to influence it.
00:01:44
This isn't accidental. It's the business
00:01:47
model. Have you ever talked about
00:01:49
something out loud and then all of a
00:01:52
sudden you started seeing ads for it?
00:01:54
Yeah, that wasn't an accident. Your
00:01:57
phone is designed to listen for intent.
00:02:01
It's not recording full conversations.
00:02:04
It's listening for keywords, words like
00:02:08
buy, looking for, need, planning, or
00:02:13
specific product names. And every time
00:02:16
it hears something valuable, it tags it,
00:02:19
analyzes it, and sends it to an
00:02:22
advertiser's database.
00:02:24
That is the part most people never
00:02:26
realize. But audio isn't the only
00:02:30
problem. Apps can track you through
00:02:33
Bluetooth beacons and stores, Wi-Fi
00:02:36
networks you walk past, location
00:02:38
history, even with GPS turned off, your
00:02:43
IP address, which reveals your habits,
00:02:46
motion sensors, which show when you're
00:02:48
driving, walking, or sleeping. Metadata,
00:02:52
which exposes your relationships and
00:02:54
behaviors. Even photos can take certain
00:02:58
hidden data, the exact location, device
00:03:02
type, and timestamp.
00:03:05
This is why I say your phone knows you
00:03:08
better than your friends and family, and
00:03:10
in some cases, even yourself. So, what
00:03:15
can you do? Let me give you a quick
00:03:17
checklist. Number one, turn off
00:03:21
microphone access for all apps except
00:03:24
those that actually need it. Number two,
00:03:27
disable location permissions for apps
00:03:30
that don't require it. Number three,
00:03:34
delete apps you don't use, even if you
00:03:37
think they're harmless.
00:03:40
Number four, avoid free apps. If it's
00:03:44
free, you are the product.
00:03:47
Number five, use a privacy focused
00:03:50
browser instead of the default one.
00:03:54
Number six, turn off Bluetooth when
00:03:57
you're not using it.
00:03:59
Number seven, restart your phone once a
00:04:03
week. It kills a lot of the background
00:04:06
tracking.
00:04:08
These simple actions cut about 70 to 80%
00:04:11
of the tracking most people experience.
00:04:14
Your phone will never be 100% private.
00:04:17
That's the reality of modern technology.
00:04:20
But the more you understand how your
00:04:24
data is collected and the more
00:04:26
intentional you become about what you
00:04:29
allow, the more control you take back
00:04:32
over your digital life. If you want to
00:04:36

00:04:38
free, head over to computerscurity.

00:04:53
