Open Chrome on your phone right now. Tap the three dots → Settings → Site settings → All sites.
Scroll that list.
I found shein.com sitting there with 5 cookies and 620kB of data. I opened that site ONCE. Months ago. There were ad trackers on there I'd never even heard of — cpmstar, sharethrough, sharethis.
They're all still holding data on your phone right now.
New video is up — I show you exactly how to wipe them and stop it happening again. Takes 2 minutes. 👇

Google pre-installed an app on your Pixel with no delete button. It's been quietly tracking every app you open. New video shows you exactly how to shut it down 👇

Google buried this in their own terms and hoped you'd never find it. 👇
Turning off "Web & App Activity" on your Pixel doesn't stop Google from collecting your data.
They admitted it — in their own words — hidden in a disclaimer most people scroll right past.
I found it, screenshotted it, and broke down exactly what it means for your privacy in this video.

🚨 EVERYONE WITH A GOOGLE ACCOUNT NEEDS TO CHECK THIS RIGHT NOW.
You think turning off your privacy settings actually stops tracking? It doesn't.
I just went into the deepest settings on my Pixel and uncovered a hidden disclaimer that Google hoped you would never find. It literally says—in plain text—that regardless of your choices, they can still collect your data.
Worse? When you turn certain settings "off," Google completely hides a second sub-page where they automatically pre-checked a box that feeds your data to advertisers. They disabled the main switch but kept the parts running that make them money.
If you own an Android or a Pixel, you are flying blind until you turn this off at the device level.
Stop scrolling and fix your phone right now:

3 apps on your Pixel are running in the background right now — scanning your face, logging every word you type, and recording every video you watch.
One of them is an app you use every single day without thinking about it.
The fixes take under 2 minutes. Video goes live today — make sure notifications are on so you don't miss it. 🔔

Google's own settings page literally admits — in writing — that turning off "Hey Google" doesn't actually turn off Hey Google. 😶
I found this buried in a confirmation dialog on my Pixel. Most people tap straight through it without reading.
Just dropped a new video showing exactly where to find it + 4 other settings Google hid in your Pixel that drain your battery AND track you. Each takes under 30 seconds.
