  • Is it Possible to be "Brainwashed" by Facebook ads?!
    2020/03/11
    The Spinner, banned by Facebook, "subconsciously influenced" targets' behaviour with online posts "disguised as editorial content". Plus Cambridge Analytica and its role in both Trump and Brexit!✅ Get 2 months of Skillshare for free: https://skillshare.eqcm.net/7qEPdPaul and Ben discuss the darker side of online advertising, where things might not be all as we think they are, with nefarious behaviour lurking under the surface. We discuss the Cambridge Analytica scandal and Facebook data leak which involved the harvesting of 87,000,000 Facebook users' data as well as an app called The Spinner, which Facebook banned, but which promised to "subconsciously influence a specific person, by controlling the content on the websites he or she usually visits".With all this going on online, how can we trust what we see and read, and how can we make sure that we don't fall victim? We discuss the changes and improvements which have been made to prevent future occurrences as well as how you can be on the lookout and protect yourself.References:Watch Carole Cadwalladr's TED talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSMr-3GGvQRead about The Spinner: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-51134738**The great British Brexit robbery: how our democracy was hijacked**https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/may/07/the-great-british-brexit-robbery-hijacked-democracyPlus.... https://www.google.com/search?q=facebook+87+million+data+breachPODCAST KIT USED: https://kit.co/paulfp/video-podcast-kit-2-peopleFOLLOW US:Twitter: https://twitter.com/SwitchedOnNet // https://twitter.com/paulfpInstagram: https://instagram.com/SwitchedOnNetwork // https://instagram.com/paulfpFacebook: https://facebook.com/SwitchedOnNetwork // https://facebook.com/paulfpJoin in the discussion in our Facebook group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/SwitchedOnNetwork/► Support on PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SwitchedOnNetwork► Browse our MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/switchedonnetworkCheck out our Amazon Influencer shops! ► UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/switchedonnetwork► USA: https://www.amazon.com/shop/switchedonnetwork► Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/shop/switchedonnetworkDISCLOSURE: As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.The views or opinions expressed during this episode are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Innobella Media, Switched on Network, Sound Rebel or any employees, contractors, suppliers or associates thereof.Copyright © Innobella Media Limited 2020.

  • How Much Does Amazon Know About Us?
    2020/03/04
    How much does Amazon know about us? Paul and Ben ask if it's creepy & too much, or clever and useful! After reading the story of the BBC Panorama journalist Leo Kelion who submitted a Subject Access Request (under Data Protection / GDPR) to see what data Amazon held on him, Paul and Ben discuss the data he got back, the reasons for its capture and what this means for us. Getting an inside into our own Amazon data can be alarming, but so long as our privacy is properly protected we discuss the benefits this can bring to the both customers and the company - and even the planet!✅ Get 2 months of Skillshare for free: https://skillshare.eqcm.net/7qEPd PODCAST KIT USED: https://kit.co/paulfp/video-podcast-kit-2-people FOLLOW US:Twitter: https://twitter.com/SwitchedOnNet  // https://twitter.com/paulfp Instagram: https://instagram.com/SwitchedOnNetwork  // https://instagram.com/paulfp Facebook: https://facebook.com/SwitchedOnNetwork  // https://facebook.com/paulfp Join in the discussion in our Facebook group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/SwitchedOnNetwork/ ► Support on PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SwitchedOnNetwork ► Browse our MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/switchedonnetwork  Check out our Amazon Influencer shops! ► UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/switchedonnetwork ► USA: https://www.amazon.com/shop/switchedonnetwork► Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/shop/switchedonnetwork  DISCLOSURE: As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. The views or opinions expressed during this episode are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Innobella Media, Switched on Network, Sound Rebel or any employees, contractors, suppliers or associates thereof. Copyright © Innobella Media Limited 2020.

  • Should We Be Worried About Smart Speakers? Are They Always Listening?!
    2020/02/14
    Is Alexa always listening? Could my Google Home be hacked?! Paul and Ben talk smart speaker privacy concerns!✅ Get 2 months of Skillshare for free: https://skillshare.eqcm.net/7qEPd  Is Google always listening? If you're looking into smart speaker pros and cons and you're rightly concerned by privacy issues, you might have asked yourself, "is Siri always listening?" In this, the first episode of our new podcast, we answer questions such as "Is Google Home always listening?" (eg. for the wake-up phrase "OK Google" or "Hey Google") as well as asking if it's possible for people to use Google Home to secretly listen in to conversations.  We talk about how the always-listening technology works so that the devices can respond when you say "Siri!", "Alexa!" or "OK Google!", as well as answering Ben's question: Does Google Home listen to you all the time? And could someone hack a smart speaker to see what you're saying inside the privacy of your own home?!  PODCAST KIT USED: https://kit.co/paulfp/video-podcast-kit-2-people FOLLOW US:Twitter: https://twitter.com/SwitchedOnNet // https://twitter.com/paulfp Instagram: https://instagram.com/SwitchedOnNetwork // https://instagram.com/paulfp Facebook: https://facebook.com/SwitchedOnNetwork // https://facebook.com/paulfp  Join in the discussion in our Facebook group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/SwitchedOnNetwork/► Support on PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SwitchedOnNetwork► Browse our MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/switchedonnetworkCheck out our Amazon Influencer shops!► UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/switchedonnetwork► USA: https://www.amazon.com/shop/switchedonnetwork► Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/shop/switchedonnetworkDISCLOSURE: As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. The views or opinions expressed during this episode are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Innobella Media, Switched on Network, Sound Rebel or any employees, contractors, suppliers or associates thereof. Copyright © Innobella Media Limited 2020.
