I agree. #makethisaseries makes sense, at least for a while. ^^ I think we can easily do 10-20 episodes of this before we get a true sense of what's going on.
VideoDivo 337 Who needs an excuse for that? Just clear it if you want to, problem solved. If anybody in my life would judge me upon how often or not often I clear my browser history and control me that much, he would get kicked right out of my life.
I had a school project and needed go google everything about drugs, mostly about cocaine because our teacher forced us to and no one came by. I googled the whole day and when i got home my mom told me to stop😂
I wouldn't delete your browsing history, cookies etc now after this test, I'd give it a day or two and come back to it, it may be they're not gonna display ads straight away cause then it'd be pretty obvious.
WIFIGHOST CRUISER yes true...wtf... What if I subscribe to u Sope Clan (™ wtf... Are u a trade market company?! ) for this videos...so I have to subscribe to u for this channel
Marcus Jensen the phrase literally right before "I don't want a cat" is "I don't have cats". Go get your ears checked buddy, or did you not watch the video?
Hey you should check whether Google has specifically stopped tapping you cause of your video.... To test this do the same thing u did in 1st video go live.
2:45 he said look at this nice looking fellow but if you read it, it says he was guilty of murder and also it was funny when he said here’s the dog and he pointed at the girl
Hey google algorithm is constantly improving so a 2 minute chat about shower heads won’t cut it anymore. For instance Now you may have to search it and then talk about it. Remember ads are paying people they KNOW will click on them. A 2min fling about cats won’t cut it even if google listens.
You're working really hard to prove that google is always listening but here's some advice :- don't you think you should stop talking while you're opening or surfing websites coz at a time google is also listening and maybe it will catch some other words and start showing you ads related to some particular word it heard *you should stop talking and do a real test*
I guess lass night he talked more about pleasure rings than cats, maybe that's why pleasure rings keep coming up on at least every website he goes to LMAO
I said something at dinner one day about this particular video I had seen on youtubre a while back and hadn't seen since. I mentioned the title several times and that night it was one of the first videos recommended to me by youtube and right under that was his series on "is google always listening. " I've been hooked ever since
Dr. Joey hey every guys done that at least once, where I’m at or really anywhere you’d be considered gay if you didn’t say something positive about a woman’s hot bod!
The other day i was talking to someone about how automated lawnmowers were cool (very obscure product, right?) and the next day i got an ad for an automated lawnmower on instagram. Had never seen the ad before then. I think they listen
I feel like the first video in this series one was right around the time of Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, so it was just before big companies made large sweeping changes to how they collect data, but now we’ve got more serious privacy policies and the EU has GDPR and everything. What I’m saying is, Google USED to listen to you, but it doesn’t anymore, because it can’t afford to take the risk.
My Pandora app definitely listens to me. It might also pull info from my GPS. I am an Uber driver and have casual conversations with my passengers all the time. The ads that pop up are usually tied to my conversations. If I pick up from the airport and ask where they came from, like Florida, a Visit Florida ad pops up. If I am talking to my self and I get a pickup location, like Target or Shop Rite, An ad for a random product pops up, but it tells me I can buy it at the store I am driving to.
Sorry about my english, i'm from Argentina. A few days ago i was looking for some sharpeners for my knives and stuff, so i was quite interested in one of those models witch i was googling it, It costs 40 dollars and decided for see if in a local armery i could get something more cheaper, so i let the days happen and "oh casuality" i was on Facebook and i see and advertisement and there It was, the same model i want, the same manufacturer, the same price (40 bucks) so i dont know how yo think about that. Thanks for read and sorry again for my english.
I don't know... Last month, I was talking with a friend about South Park, I told him I really like it and how I used to stay up late to watch it on the TV. Well, a few days later, TH-cam showed me a bunch of South Park videos as "theme for you", when I have never looked for this.
So I got a haircut a while ago it was basically a shave but I got on my phone and suddenly I kept getting adds about shaving especially targeted to hair so I don't know if Google uses the cameras on phones please do a project having to do with this By the way the phone i was using was a Samsung 5 and I was on TH-cam
SeaBass Studios no definitely not camera (just think how tedious it would be for google’s services to track things). Location on google maps is a high possibility and if you ever mentioned cutting your hair or needing a haircut audibly, that’s another possibility
SeaBass Studios bro shut up you’re making me scared and skeptical of google 😂🤐😫😱 I straight up got a google home and I muted it after I watched on of his earlier videos on this!
You should test if the google voice search listens and changes ads. Something like clicking on the microphone icon, and talking about something, then cancel the search and see if it will still change ads.
I tried this myself, talking about phone services and all phone related stuff and on atleast 4 common web pages, were ads about Samsung, Sprint, and phone upgrade plans.
Well there is obviously a better chance of Pet Ads on a Pet related video :) That was most informative :) However besides getting lucky and finding a Pet Related Video randomly I don't see the connection between what you said into your mic and the Ads you saw for the most part :)
I have been watching Mitchollow for over a year now ever since I saw his Sean Murray Impersonations :) Love the funny stuff he does and this latest theory on being recorded by TH-cam is interesting but I do believe that even if they are listening that they are not doing anything with the information.
Hi! I have watch all 4 test.. really interesting what you did there.. sometime, when i talk about something.. and want to search about it.. at the very first word i type, the Google/ TH-cam already give suggestion of the whole sentence of what i want to search. Maybe you can try that later.. one more thing.. I've been thinking.. is our camera also always on all the time? when we browse something like browsing product in online store or reading some article.. maybe the camera detect our facial expression to see our interest or likes.. maybe they create some algorithm for their adds marketing for this too.. hope to have this kind of test in the future to proof whether this is true or not.
Nasrat Shardally I don't think anyone cares. It's not a big achievement. You're just a statistic, and you're not anymore special for seeing it first. You're why these companies get much more money if you pay more to see it first.
CutePuppy351 Yeah, well, you kinda feel special for a minute, like “out of seven billion people on planet earth i was first to watch this”. I’m sure that that TH-cam comment is never going to stop, so just relax and let people have their special moment, please. Completely unrelated, but there is one comment that I’d like to see go, and that’s the one that’s like “don’t press read more” *insert 50+ empty lines* “savage” *insert 60+ more lines* “what did I tell you” AND SO ON..... those are annoying.
You should also do whether Google is using the images you sent to friends to deliver ads. Today I got an ad for a whisky brand I hadn't heard of until yesterday when a friend sent me a picture of the bottle. Coincidence?
This one time my buddy asked me if I had ever heard of Hello Fresh and I hadn’t so I asked what it was. Then that night when I got home I saw an ad for it
I went to the store the other day and bought a DiGiorno pizza, you'll never guess what's popping up all over my recommended advertisements now. I spent paper money on it. Holy Christmas!
Try this, talk about very specialized equipment, the kind which usually comes directly from the manufacturer or a very narrow band of distributors, and see what happens. I work in an industry which uses very specialized equipment and see adds for that kind of stuff all the time on my browsers.
sometimes i feel like my phone is not only listening,but also reading my mind.everytime i want to search up something on google or youtube,when i write first letter it literally instantly shows up as the first suggestion,it's so freaky.
This happened to me on TH-cam. I never watched, talked about, searched about the series called walking dead. So never has, up to the incident, occured a recommendation on my TH-cam about walking dead. The afternoon before I was at my friend's house to pick him up for coffee but he was late because he was watching it. So we discussed about it for 10-15 minutes maximum, then left for coffee. The next morning at the office, out of nowhere, 2 walking dead videos in my recommended videos - home page. Note that I did NOT connect to his Wi-Fi at home, we weren't logged in through my TH-cam or Google account on his pc, I did not even charge my phone in his house. Edit: Correcting autocorrect stuff that make no sense.
my sister and i saw an advertisement on TV , completely unrelated to google and it was a guy on a horse getting pulled over because he looked drunk, so she was curious so she searched "can you" and the first thing that showed up was " can you get a DUI on a horse?" hella suspicious
Of course google is always listening. How do you think it hears you say "ok google"?
Nate Byars lol
Ooooof
Busted
Good point
... Have people not been considering that?
Me: i don't have a microphone.. I am secure
The next day

Lada. It's a baby
He has kids actually, but yeah it definitely sounded like a cat but it was his child
Lada. It’s definitely not a cat it’s a retarded toddler
I would watch these like a weekly episode if i could... next on "Is Google Always Listening: Test 34"
Matt Curnes haha I enjoy these episodes a lot too
The last one was filled with shower acids
Currently watching this one :)
Me too, Mitch so enjoyable to watch.
#makethisaseries
I agree.
#makethisaseries makes sense, at least for a while. ^^
I think we can easily do 10-20 episodes of this before we get a true sense of what's going on.
Matt Curnes :333 Hehhe dear sensei
3:34 you said cocaine so much I’m surprised you didn’t get an ad from google for it
Turn on auto generated subtitles for the first 2 seconds of the video
Blurry Skeleton haha

Blurry Skeleton oh my

Do you think he does these as an excuse to clear his browsing history?
VideoDivo 337 😂😂
VideoDivo 337 Who needs an excuse for that? Just clear it if you want to, problem solved. If anybody in my life would judge me upon how often or not often I clear my browser history and control me that much, he would get kicked right out of my life.
QA Purrsian You clearly don't have a girlfriend
Tomy I think you should expect this level of trust in a relationship
NeoStrike Why would you clear your browser history if you had 100% trust ?
I want a series where its just you reading news articles
Solar I love his cadence
Solar yes
*and here we have some asians doing the Asian power salute*
I read that and then immediately I saw that part in the video
Joke's on you Google, I don't talk to anyone...

And what if i talk about drugs, bombs, murders all the day? Will the cops come to me?
*FBI OPEN UP*
I dare you to talk about shrek loli hentai all over the day also about memes if you live in europe
I had a school project and needed go google everything about drugs, mostly about cocaine because our teacher forced us to and no one came by. I googled the whole day and when i got home my mom told me to stop😂

I wouldn't delete your browsing history, cookies etc now after this test, I'd give it a day or two and come back to it, it may be they're not gonna display ads straight away cause then it'd be pretty obvious.
Pommy192 true, why don’t you test it yourself
Just a tip, when opening a page in a new tab, you don’t need to right click and select that option.
You can just click the middle mouse button
Or Ctrl+Click
ooooh
thx
Mimle Bimle i really didn’t knew that, thx buddy
i actually didn't know that!
OnoPyko how can someone not know that seriously thats sad...
Am I the only one who is subscribed only because of these videos?
Sope Clan™ yer not the only one
No
Sope Clan™ that doesn't make any sense? Would you be subscribe to this channel because of somebody else's videos?
WIFIGHOST CRUISER yes true...wtf... What if I subscribe to u Sope Clan (™ wtf... Are u a trade market company?! ) for this videos...so I have to subscribe to u for this channel
St1lysh I can't figure out what the hell you're talking about, learn how to speak English.
0:27 "I don't want a cat." *Very clear cat noise in background*
AslanDaLion Gaming hahaha I was going to comment "more like a 2 year old" but yours is much better
It's a fucking baby lol
Issa baby
Or he has a cat and doesent want another one but first response is awesome
Marcus Jensen the phrase literally right before "I don't want a cat" is "I don't have cats". Go get your ears checked buddy, or did you not watch the video?
don't talk about the test whilst the browser is open, just put some text on screen when you see a cat or somin (just browse)
canned_ doughnuts_ the articles are already loaded so it doesn’t matter
That’s exactly what I thought of when I read the title !!
I love how he just starts talking about the ads and articles.
Idk why but i think this guy could be a meme
boi he tries too hard
if you are still not sure you should watch the video about the soylent.
Let's do it
Anything can become a meme, thats how they work
No, his viewers who think all this is real are the memes lol
Hey you should check whether Google has specifically stopped tapping you cause of your video.... To test this do the same thing u did in 1st video go live.
2:45 he said look at this nice looking fellow but if you read it, it says he was guilty of murder and also it was funny when he said here’s the dog and he pointed at the girl

Rigth !!!!!
I was thinking about this while watching the first test lol
Please keep doing these tests. I love them.
I guess lass night he talked more about pleasure rings than cats, maybe that's why pleasure rings keep coming up on at least every website he goes to LMAO
Or maybe Google misunderstood which type of cat he was going for
Rei underrated comment
I could watch a video of you just reading random articles without testing for ads 😂
Did you reset your history before or after talking about cats
why does watching these give me so much fulfillment
You know what, you could do 15 of these and I would love them all!! I genuinely enjoy them haha! Thanks for the content !!
I seen a noloxone ad. Are you perhaps a hardcore junkie?
Mitchell Maytorena he said cocaine a lot at 3:34 google is listening...
A noloxone ad and an ad about quitting opiates 🤣
I said something at dinner one day about this particular video I had seen on youtubre a while back and hadn't seen since. I mentioned the title several times and that night it was one of the first videos recommended to me by youtube and right under that was his series on "is google always listening.

8:13 Isn't that cat ad on bottom right corner? Have u seen that?
He already talked about that add near rhe start
No music, okay? 5:48
Oh, look. You got a music ad at 6:46
3:52 *looks surprised at the picture* Ooouh that's a good picture for the thumbnail.
7:16 I just loves how he just smiles when he said "I'm not paying nothing!"
3:53 your eyes widen up so much, I wonder why

The other day i was talking to someone about how automated lawnmowers were cool (very obscure product, right?) and the next day i got an ad for an automated lawnmower on instagram. Had never seen the ad before then. I think they listen
Matthew Clary whenever I get ads like these it's always on Instagram, too
And here's the dog.

Lol
You didn't watch the whole car video, the entire car wash crashed down in him while he tries to back up again

I feel like the first video in this series one was right around the time of Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, so it was just before big companies made large sweeping changes to how they collect data, but now we’ve got more serious privacy policies and the EU has GDPR and everything.
What I’m saying is, Google USED to listen to you, but it doesn’t anymore, because it can’t afford to take the risk.
My fav TH-camr,deserves more than 2m subs
This video was recommended to me after I talked about how Google is listening to you and gives you ads based on what you say.
you should try with your phone
My Pandora app definitely listens to me. It might also pull info from my GPS. I am an Uber driver and have casual conversations with my passengers all the time. The ads that pop up are usually tied to my conversations. If I pick up from the airport and ask where they came from, like Florida, a Visit Florida ad pops up. If I am talking to my self and I get a pickup location, like Target or Shop Rite, An ad for a random product pops up, but it tells me I can buy it at the store I am driving to.
I am still suspecting this. I don't know, would love to see more such experiments. And as always love from India xD
Shipra Avasthi this is ridiculously obvious that this test failed but ok then
Acitic ok

Looks like he’s really been talking about Enso rings...

Sorry about my english, i'm from Argentina. A few days ago i was looking for some sharpeners for my knives and stuff, so i was quite interested in one of those models witch i was googling it, It costs 40 dollars and decided for see if in a local armery i could get something more cheaper, so i let the days happen and "oh casuality" i was on Facebook and i see and advertisement and there It was, the same model i want, the same manufacturer, the same price (40 bucks) so i dont know how yo think about that. Thanks for read and sorry again for my english.
KbZaaa Facebook listens if you have an apple phone methinks
Your English is great I wouldn't have know you weren't a native speaker if you hadn't said anything
OwenHiggins does it Facebook check what i search in google? Im pretty sure that i dont say a thing about sharpeners or stuff
OwenHiggins thank you!
Oh yeah that happens
I don't know... Last month, I was talking with a friend about South Park, I told him I really like it and how I used to stay up late to watch it on the TV. Well, a few days later, TH-cam showed me a bunch of South Park videos as "theme for you", when I have never looked for this.
So I got a haircut a while ago it was basically a shave but I got on my phone and suddenly I kept getting adds about shaving especially targeted to hair so I don't know if Google uses the cameras on phones please do a project having to do with this
By the way the phone i was using was a Samsung 5 and I was on TH-cam
Maybe not cameras but GPS. My phone always asks me to rate a business everytime I go somewhere like a barber or a store.
SeaBass Studios that's because your phone and knows every place you go, Google Maps. If your phone knows so does everybody else.
LOL
SeaBass Studios no definitely not camera (just think how tedious it would be for google’s services to track things). Location on google maps is a high possibility and if you ever mentioned cutting your hair or needing a haircut audibly, that’s another possibility
SeaBass Studios bro shut up you’re making me scared and skeptical of google 😂🤐😫😱 I straight up got a google home and I muted it after I watched on of his earlier videos on this!
I feel like TH-cam is always listening because I’m always talking about musicals and I always get ads to buy tickets for musicals
Alexa is always listening.
Talked about how it is weird that the games I play get in my youtube recommendations, and your video got suddenly recommended
You look like my driving school teacher.
"I like his hair, eyebrows and giant mouth"
🤣
Plz do a video on akinator I feel like he is always listening it’s scary
You should test if the google voice search listens and changes ads. Something like clicking on the microphone icon, and talking about something, then cancel the search and see if it will still change ads.
FBI is listening
*listening
Cybernik The Robot ty didn’t see that
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK* FBI OPEN UP
I tried this myself, talking about phone services and all phone related stuff and on atleast 4 common web pages, were ads about Samsung, Sprint, and phone upgrade plans.
Did you know google gives the possibility to have personalized ads?
I sometimes talk about something and then log into my TH-cam to see videos on my recommended about the same topic I was talking about
this test just wasnt good enough
I was astonished after the first test!
Well there is obviously a better chance of Pet Ads on a Pet related video :) That was most informative :)
However besides getting lucky and finding a Pet Related Video randomly I don't see the connection between what you said into your mic and the Ads you saw for the most part :)
Dennis Yamaguchi Jr are you new here?
I have been watching Mitchollow for over a year now ever since I saw his Sean Murray Impersonations :)
Love the funny stuff he does and this latest theory on being recorded by TH-cam is interesting but I do believe that even if they are listening that they are not doing anything with the information.
Hi! I have watch all 4 test.. really interesting what you did there.. sometime, when i talk about something.. and want to search about it.. at the very first word i type, the Google/ TH-cam already give suggestion of the whole sentence of what i want to search. Maybe you can try that later.. one more thing.. I've been thinking.. is our camera also always on all the time? when we browse something like browsing product in online store or reading some article.. maybe the camera detect our facial expression to see our interest or likes.. maybe they create some algorithm for their adds marketing for this too.. hope to have this kind of test in the future to proof whether this is true or not.
Second and I haven’t even subscribed to this channel 😂😂
Woooottt?????
Nasrat Shardally I don't think anyone cares. It's not a big achievement. You're just a statistic, and you're not anymore special for seeing it first. You're why these companies get much more money if you pay more to see it first.
CutePuppy351 bro no one wants some r/iamverysmart shit on here.
Michael Smith lol
CutePuppy351 Yeah, well, you kinda feel special for a minute, like “out of seven billion people on planet earth i was first to watch this”. I’m sure that that TH-cam comment is never going to stop, so just relax and let people have their special moment, please. Completely unrelated, but there is one comment that I’d like to see go, and that’s the one that’s like “don’t press read more” *insert 50+ empty lines* “savage” *insert 60+ more lines* “what did I tell you” AND SO ON..... those are annoying.
CutePuppy351 second and u gay
You should also do whether Google is using the images you sent to friends to deliver ads.
Today I got an ad for a whisky brand I hadn't heard of until yesterday when a friend sent me a picture of the bottle. Coincidence?
now your just milking the views
Renix no we want him
Renix How is he milking the views?
Fallen Herø 😂😂😂
***********yOu'rE
Wym hes been milking lol
This one time my buddy asked me if I had ever heard of Hello Fresh and I hadn’t so I asked what it was. Then that night when I got home I saw an ad for it
▄︻̷̿┻̿═━一
I went to the store the other day and bought a DiGiorno pizza, you'll never guess what's popping up all over my recommended advertisements now. I spent paper money on it. Holy Christmas!
One thing that we both have in common.
Gay
Angel Estrada
Exactly
big gay
Derek Bryceson Large homosexual
massive opposite sex
Try this, talk about very specialized equipment, the kind which usually comes directly from the manufacturer or a very narrow band of distributors, and see what happens. I work in an industry which uses very specialized equipment and see adds for that kind of stuff all the time on my browsers.
Firts
So the evidence we have in test four:
One cat ad in an article about pets
One piece of evidence in an 8 minute video
"And here's the dog right here"
This video series is a Fark.com ad itself XD
You're supposed to refresh so the ads reload, if the page is already loaded then the ads wont change
"I don't own a cat... I don't want a cat" *faint meow in distance*
sometimes i feel like my phone is not only listening,but also reading my mind.everytime i want to search up something on google or youtube,when i write first letter it literally instantly shows up as the first suggestion,it's so freaky.
Where did you get your wallpaper I love it
This happened to me on TH-cam. I never watched, talked about, searched about the series called walking dead. So never has, up to the incident, occured a recommendation on my TH-cam about walking dead.
The afternoon before I was at my friend's house to pick him up for coffee but he was late because he was watching it. So we discussed about it for 10-15 minutes maximum, then left for coffee.
The next morning at the office, out of nowhere, 2 walking dead videos in my recommended videos - home page.
Note that I did NOT connect to his Wi-Fi at home, we weren't logged in through my TH-cam or Google account on his pc, I did not even charge my phone in his house.
Edit: Correcting autocorrect stuff that make no sense.
All my ads on this video were cat related
A bit off topic but where did you get your wallpaper? I love it
Use "Himalayan Salt Lamps" as a topic. It's distinct, not overly common, and they're easy to spot.
For school I got an RBC award and I made a joke saying RBC sponsored and for a month now I have been getting RBC ads on TH-cam 50% of the time
Remember that TH-cam is owned pas Google
Just subscribed to you today. Love your content!!
At 2:36 there was a story about a 29 pound cat right above the cat food ad from petco.
This guy purposely misses things so people will comment he is a genius
Wow okay, not phased by the crushed car with probably AN INJURED PERSON INSIDE
I love that wallpaper! Where did you get it?

my sister and i saw an advertisement on TV , completely unrelated to google and it was a guy on a horse getting pulled over because he looked drunk, so she was curious so she searched "can you" and the first thing that showed up was " can you get a DUI on a horse?" hella suspicious
