Privacy Scandal: 400 Million Phone Numbers Leaked From Facebook - Big Tech Is Not Helping Us Video
Facebook has once again been found to have been seriously deficient in it's handling of it's user's private data. A database has been found, unsecured, online that contains over 400 million records of private information and phone numbers about facebook users - tied to their facebook profile IDs. The potential for exploitation of this data is massive and causes us to consider how many groups and individuals have access to such data and how they are manipulating us and our world with it.
Many alternatives exist to the large, corrupt corporate entities that many are entrusting their most private data to - I recommend checking out the more integrity based solutions such as those found on the Steem blockchain, my own site ureka.org (https://www.ureka.org) and minds.com. There is no need for us to continue making billionaires even richer when their entire business model revolves around exploiting humanity and when alternatives already exist.
Wishing you well,
Ura Soul

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
