Google is recording your voice while you browse the internet * 2
    #23629284 - 09/09/16 02:46 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/google-voice-search-records-stores-conversation-people-have-around-their-phones-but-files-can-be-a7059376.html

To view your recordings, go here and click "Voice & Audio": https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity?restrict=vaa&utm_source=help
https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity?restrict=vaa&utm_source=help&product=29

Sure enough, I had recordings of my voice on there. I went through and deleted them one by one. I'm sure they still keep it uploaded on some back server somewhere though.

Edit: Wowwwww this is really scary.
So, most of the voice recordings that I found were of me using the voice search or voice text feature.
But I even found one recording of me talking to somebody in the background, I was clearly in a busy area and was not even using my phone at this time.

What the hell?!?!?

Not surprised. Really typical shit from a google feature.

I'm sick of all you hypocrites
Holding me at bay
And I don't need your sympathy
To get me through the day
Seasons change and so can I
Hold on boy, no time to cry
Untie these strings, I'm climbing down
I won't let them push me away

Under My Google activity, you should see something that says "Voice & Audio," if you click on that it expands a shitload of voice clips of you.

There is a delete all activity option. No need to go one by one really.

Creepy, but makes sense with how Android integration works with everything.

I followed one of your links that did an audio search but nothing came up, I will double check though. I never use voice searches so that could be why.

Seems very possible your phone was just accidentally doing voice command stuff in your pocket when it picked up the recording of you talking randomly.

I'm not sure? If you don't have an account, I don't think you will be able to see what they have on your profile.

Yeah, that's probably it. I've only found a couple instances of me talking in the background.

In one, I can't clearly hear what I'm saying, sounds like I'm talking to somebody at a party or a bar somewhere saying "You're my favorite (rapper?)" (the last word I can't make out, but that's what it sounds like I'm saying), and somebody who sounds like my boyfriend (it might be him actually) and he's going "I am? Awww" and then it cuts off.

There's another one where I wasn't speaking into the phone. It sounds like I'm in a quiet place like a house or something, and I'm having an argument of some kind. I kind of have a tone in my voice and I'm saying "The reason has nothing to do with you, it's cause I'm dealing with my own shit right now and" and it cuts off right there. I don't hear anybody else in the background except me.

What's really odd though, is that I have hundreds of audio clips of my voice feature simply turning on, you hear the beep, and then that's it, it cuts off almost immediately after. It does this every single month. The sound cuts off right after the beep.

But in many of these clips, I can briefly hear static in the background that sounds to me like I'm at a busy place like a grocery store or work or a bar or something. It's unlikely that I would have ever used the voice feature in such a noisy place. So I don't know if Google or my phone is automatically setting off the voice feature on my phone randomly at times and getting random recordings or not.

tbh I'm more freaked out by the activity log. If someone manages to get your gmail password and you don't use a VPN/proxy then they can pretty much figure out where you are right then if you're signed into gmail on your phone.


Really creepy.

Maybe the hundreds of short ones are from your phone getting triggered into audio mode then shutting off when there are no voice commands.

I have seen smart phones do stuff like that, hundreds seems a bit much but if its over a long period of time that could be the case.

Some phones turn on in pockets all the time. I have only had ones that would take pocket pics though :lol:

I believe it. Call me paranoid but I don't believe in synching and I most certainly do not allow google updates and I try to take out as much bloatware on my device as possible. I don't believe in the Messenger app either.

No voice recordings but it does have a list of all the youtube videos I have watched and the search terms used... a pretty awesome list; I wish I could share it. 

Go to menu-> activity control and you can pause the various services.  For me only youtube logging is active.  Browser  search history, location history, device info and voice/audio are all paused.

2)Amanita (urine drank twice)
3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose)
4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators)
5)Salvia (need to try quid)


All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental.

Blessing.

I known about this for a while.  There was an article a while back of how they log everywhere you go on your GPS.

The got no data for me :sad: kinda wish they did but I disabled it when I first opened the account, and that account isn't really linked to anything anyway.

I have gmail, google plus, youtube, everything that google likes to link, the thing
is, I dont link shit, I dont want my phone linked to my accounts, I dont want my
gmail linked to my youtube, everything is under a different email than everything
else so there's no direct links. I've done voice searches but they wont show because
my phone isnt linked to shit


nothing by me opn the internet is under my real name either, even my facebook is

I give it 100 years before the spy technology becomes mandatory by law and not removable in the settings of electronics. :lol:

Even if that were the case, there will always be some way around it... even if that means leaving technology at home while you are doing anything illegal or that make you paranoid about being watched.

I imagine in the next ten years we will be living in augmented reality, with our biometrics translated and stored as digital data... Wearable electronics are already a thing - as are electronics that are a part of our bodies, and i'm not talking about pace makers either. When it gets to that point, i will personally draw the line for me just short of anything that translates my thoughts into physical data... Unless i can really live for ever as a cyborg.

Who's to say they aren't already planting chips in our new borns?.. After a baby is born there is a period where it is separated from the mother or any relative for that matter, now My question is, where does it go?, what happens when no one is watching?..

Have you guys read about those weaponized USB 2.0 sticks?
Apparently, they offer them cheap online and have the ability to steal information/credentials and electronically destroy any device you can plug a USB into.

Ya  i have heard they are great for multimedia (digital design, musical engineering etc.) They may even have better hardware overall, but I feel like the software in android or PC is wayyyy superior. More options and ways to customize. More palpable.

I dont see a big deal with this.

they only save the audio from when you activate the voice search features.

It doesnt just record every conversation or call you make, and it most likely just saves them to improve voice search.

if its that big of a deal to you just delete any existing recordings and dont use the voice search features. :shrug:

I think the benefits are going to need to be a little more obvious. Androids are fully customizable. I hate Windows 10 which is the only recent windows OS upgrade Ive played around with and am not even very familiar with.

Most of the time my PC would die within 6 months to 2 years. I got a shitload of viruses too, even when I'd install anti-virus or anti-spyware software it didn't seem to help.

Now I almost never get malware, and if I do I can call Apple Care to have them resolve it for me.

Not only that, but the laptop where I had Windows ME was a nightmare, whenever the computer froze while saving a document it would completely erase the document from the hard drive. I lost a couple of essays this way.

I guess all devices can if some tech on their end turns it on or some shit lol :lol: regardless of phone make and model lol.

All android phones are also sold with monitoring programs installed. 'Something' tracker should be in your installed apps.

Im not sure of specific names of apps but if you search your open processes  there should be a few unknow apps with read/right access to everything on your phone and link back to something called sysscope.
They have the ability to turn on mic/camera, wifi, bluetooth and mobile networks, record calls, save msgs and pics, also log key strokes, manage contacts/profiles ect...

It it supposed to be so you can find your lost phone and delete sensitive data but i still didnt give permission cor such an app to be installed and monitored by a third party.

Thats why you root your android device while flashing better ROMs, giving yourself adminstrative level permissions. Then you go on a digital witch-hunt, removing all suspicious apps and bloatware. After removing all non-essential applications you install a trusted firewall. You never synch anything or allow automatic updates. You always have your bluetooth off and your gps is never on. At your most paranoid moments you can enable airplane mode which should cause a handover removing you from the nearest cell phone tower. I think you can check this with a properly adjusted rf signal application.

I have an EMF scanner app in case I ever want to scan for suspicious EMF spikes in my environment. So far I've not seen anything significant enough to be alarmed over.

The mosquito repellent app doesn't work at all. The EMF scanner app works a little bit. You can take it inside a room with electronics going and watch the levels rise.

It's an automatic security feature.
And is partitioned accross several  apps crucial for regular operations, such as your calls/messaging features.

I assume it would bypass firewalls too as its designed as a recovery tool and can take full controll of your phone without your knowledge.
Even to the point of turning your data, WiFi and bluetooth on so it can preform tasks such as updates and reinstalls.

The problem is that the programs are always running on your phone and are so deeply ingrained into the operating systems that shit starts to become unstable/unusable when they are deleted.
And unless you are running some custom OS they will reinstall themselves on the first connection they get.
so short of never connecting your phone to the net and not being able to make calls or send messages there isnt much you can do... Unfortunately.

There are several apps you can download which are essentially the same thing and will show you just how easy it is for anyone to monitor your phone without your knowledge.

Even using a VPN on your phone is pointless cause its all linked back to your google account anyway and all outwards traffic is logged.

On the plus side, i think google is more interested in making money than busting criminals...
So unless you give someone a reason to search those records you should be fine.
Youll just have to deal with targeted advertisements for lightspeed briefs and russian housewifes for aslong as you search the net.

Not everybody, Im back to 80's living PREPHONE, I am so much happier w/o all the constant back/forth of a phone. This site is as close as I get to social media and I will tell you all, I am free of the constantly being intouch/available by everyone, we keep a cell (old school) off and there if we break down but its not smart technology and it is off 99.9% of the time. I have so much more time and freedom without that LEASH AND COLLAR ON ME. I am curious to know what google has, but If I register they will start having everything, so its a double edged sword, have to register to find out whats there, once registered they will be able to start collecting. HOLY CRAP ITS JUST LIKE CONGRESS AND THE TRADE AGREEMENTS TTP TTIP... having to approve it to find out whats in it!

Most of the time my PC would die within 6 months to 2 years. I got a shitload of viruses too, even when I'd install anti-virus or anti-spyware software it didn't seem to help.

Now I almost never get malware, and if I do I can call Apple Care to have them resolve it for me.

Not only that, but the laptop where I had Windows ME was a nightmare, whenever the computer froze while saving a document it would completely erase the document from the hard drive. I lost a couple of essays this way.





Seems like owner miss-use.

All I was saying was my PC is a beast and has been through hell and pack, while all my apple products were cuput after a year or two.

planned obsolescence. that's why there are no other manufacturers of hardware, few
if any upgrades and they manage to lock you into a proprietary system

I'm not sure? If you don't have an account, I don't think you will be able to see what they have on your profile.

I followed one of your links that did an audio search but nothing came up, I will double check though. I never use voice searches so that could be why.

Seems very possible your phone was just accidentally doing voice command stuff in your pocket when it picked up the recording of you talking randomly.




Yeah, that's probably it. I've only found a couple instances of me talking in the background.

In one, I can't clearly hear what I'm saying, sounds like I'm talking to somebody at a party or a bar somewhere saying "You're my favorite (rapper?)" (the last word I can't make out, but that's what it sounds like I'm saying), and somebody who sounds like my boyfriend (it might be him actually) and he's going "I am? Awww" and then it cuts off.

There's another one where I wasn't speaking into the phone. It sounds like I'm in a quiet place like a house or something, and I'm having an argument of some kind. I kind of have a tone in my voice and I'm saying "The reason has nothing to do with you, it's cause I'm dealing with my own shit right now and" and it cuts off right there. I don't hear anybody else in the background except me.

What's really odd though, is that I have hundreds of audio clips of my voice feature simply turning on, you hear the beep, and then that's it, it cuts off almost immediately after. It does this every single month. The sound cuts off right after the beep.

But in many of these clips, I can briefly hear static in the background that sounds to me like I'm at a busy place like a grocery store or work or a bar or something. It's unlikely that I would have ever used the voice feature in such a noisy place. So I don't know if Google or my phone is automatically setting off the voice feature on my phone randomly at times and getting random recordings or not.



They are going to compile this evidence into a case to take you down for good. God speed op... god speed....
