I must say, I really appreciate the effort you guys put in to ensure a podcast is out every week. Even if it's just 3 of you or whatever it is, there is sincerity involved and I really appreciate it. Especially, cause this is the highlight of my Tuesday. Great podcast, as always 👍
*Gonna say it again: Karan is a total boss. So brilliantly well-read, knows what he’s talking about, and puts it across in a very decent and insightful way. Keep it comin KT!*
There are 14 people below fighting to be 1st. Lekin Varun ko bulao wala comment top pe hoga. Edit : Jokes apart. After watching the video I feel this comment needs to be more relevant. 1. It doesn't matter what kind of photos/information you upload (though it'll be useful to generate more accurate profile of yours). Its about what kind of posts you like, what pages you are following, what posts do you share. This is what reveals what are your political views/travel plans etc, and thus ideal data set. 2. Facebook (and Google for that matter) has an AI algorithm that automatically scans the pictures and tag them with what those pictures might probably be about. Eg. Two people smiling, group of 8 people near water body. You can actually look what are these pictures tagged with using a chrome plug-in called facebook computer vision. 3. Having a fake news army sounds good but is extremely difficult. There are just enormous number of posts going around. Also even if you delete one account nothing is stopping the person from creating another account. 4. Most of the things sng wants to do with their Facebook involve huge amount of personal data processing. Which might not go well with the idea of 'complete privacy.' What I am trying to say is that solutions to these problems are not as easy as they sound. People need to be more concerned about their data and these issues in general (Karan seemed most aware of them. Kautuk just behaved like a dumb person).
This whole thing is freaking crazy. I work in this field and the kind of specific targeting you can do to narrow your audience is actually insane. If you want to know Facebook s biography of you go to your settings and go to ads now look at my categories and look at your whole life's description in ten lines.
Thanks, didn't know that. I don't understand what's crazy about it though, it's open knowledge that your data is being collected so you get targeted ads. People are only freaking out because it was used to push political propoganda this time, which users can choose not to get influenced by.
gargee basak I don't mind advertisers knowing what stuff I like/consume and shopping preferences. I'm not comfortable with them knowing my phone, card numbers.
I think you guys are strong influencers and there is a gigantic portion of youth that looks up to ya'll. I would like your take on the Podcast on the Kathua Case.
KT s face when he learns IG has zoom in feature. Too cute. you reached Uncle status. congrats. Cant wait to see Varun in US tour. SNG needs to do a tour too. Love from Boston.
You might not believe this but the eavesdropper ads came to me as well. And I tried the same trick of talking about a product (Like South Africa) but did not work the second time
It was quite evident that the guys sans Karan came very ill prepared on the subject.. Dude i m a regular here and expect more sensible skull sessions from you guyz on such comprehensive subjects! Please don't disappoint the next time, thanks, Cheers!
What I understood from the testimony video, there was some prof who created an app that requires you to feed in answers to various personality related questions and then give you a result summary of the same. This app via facebook reached out to a lot of people. The prof gathered this data (people's personal info from fb + their personality traits as answered in the questionnaire) and sold it to a University (not sure) which then in collaboration with foreign parties used this data to guide the entire campaign and influence people. Somebody do correct me if i'm wrong here.
there is a setting on facebook where you can download what data facebook has about you. I downloaded it (approx 60 mb zip file) and facebook has photographs which i sent to my friend long time ago. The crazy shit is that i had deleted the messages and pics long time ago and it is still there
Milya SF you need to login to your fb account on desktop or laptop. Got to settings tab...then there will a option in blue to download a copy of your Facebook data
Wasn't a game. Was simply a quiz and people got a small amount of money to take it. The only catch was that they had to login through facebook to take the quiz which is how that particular quiz app mined the data it needed
6:43 You're wrong here. No Android phone comes with Root Access by default (Google doesn't allow it). You have to go through a tedious manual process to be able to grant Root access on your Android phone (equivalent to a Jailbreak). Secondly, you need SMS permission to read that OTP. Root permission has nothing to do with SMS.
OTP requires Message read permission, Using root permission for it will be overkill. Also, Kautuk, you can download all your data by requesting facebook for a copy and then delete your account.
There are people who are working with AI which can detect fake news. It is still not in it's perfect stage, but it will improve with time. I met a Researcher from China who is working now with this and they had fare share of success with news articles. They are planning to use High Performance Computing which will make this faster and more accurate.
koutuk: if this doesn't work we would look really stupid. me: as opposed to? **gestures at everything** on serious note keep em coming guys always enjoy your podcasts.
Guys, To understand how data leak actually works take example of Adhar in last few mins of podcast. Just by Koutuks saying Zuckerberg few times Adhar pronounced giraffe as JIRAF..... Now the leaked data is gonna feed you processed/ altered info in your subconscious mind to do things....
The feature (6:22) of reading the SMS for an OTP can also be done without giving root access, it is a basic feature, your phone doesn't have to be rooted. Also a fact most of the legit apps check if a device is rooted and disallow themselves to install if found yes because it lets other apps to use the data of your app. Also Android and iOs are very strong as OS in securing data even if apps try to use data illegally. I know there are various methods to invade privacy but it is not a new concept, it has been happening since centuries, just the mode has been changed. The debate over data privacy is too big to have on a comment or on a podcast, but I believe the whole issue with FB was a bit of a Witch Hunting. Also, I am happy that we dodged the FB net neutrality bullet last year, for proposing that they can be held cruel and gulty.
I wouldnt blame Mark for the mess and the greed that has seeped into FB. A clean tech firm has been spoiled by the "great businesswoman " Sherly Sandberg. Ever since she has taken over, I have seen FB turn into this money chomping machine. Mark needs to return to his techie role and chuck Sheryl out. That would be a good starting point!
Yep. Let's lumpenize a very complex issue, and reduce it to targeted underwear ads. Only Karan seemed slightly informed on the subject, but its easy to see how his focus is not knowing, but to project that he knows... the other two monkeys are proving the point here - naivety breeds ignorance.
I must say, I really appreciate the effort you guys put in to ensure a podcast is out every week. Even if it's just 3 of you or whatever it is, there is sincerity involved and I really appreciate it. Especially, cause this is the highlight of my Tuesday.
Great podcast, as always 👍
Who is Mickey Mouse?

Thank You SnG!! Great Work
Annie Hiiii
*Gonna say it again: Karan is a total boss. So brilliantly well-read, knows what he’s talking about, and puts it across in a very decent and insightful way. Keep it comin KT!*
Rahul Bharadwaj true
Except that everything is not entirely accurate though he was very articulate (as always) about what he thinks it is.
Agreed .. he’s better than Neville n Aadar
Rahul Bharadwaj totally agreed
Can't really say it now huh

SNG wants to colonize Mars, Run Facebook etc.
In reality, they just do podcasts :P
#aukaat
Doofinshmirtz's irl.
Bc unki aukaT utni hi hai.
the writers of black mirror are shook, and taking notes.
call me and discuss about kriti sanon and nepotism ...or call sunny Leone and discuss about women empowerment
hello bhai Giridhar
Sour Pickle hello bhai
kya aapne kabhi Podcast se related comment kiya hai?
Giridhar Guptha Chutiye.. stop commenting
Respect sir... !!😂😂😂
If Sng ran Facebook without Varun, it would end up like Orkut
Link adhar card with Facebook .. no more angel priyas
Even aadhar is not secured
th-cam.com/video/fWCZDN1ph4g/w-d-xo.html
SNG at this point has became like: Jisko kaam nhi hai wo Podcast ke liye aa jao.
Invite Akshay Kumar and discuss pseudo patriotism.
Everytime I see there's no Varun I facepalm myself
Kevin Kotak Exactly!
Anup Shewale then I see karan and it just gets worse 😂
Kevin Kotak Hahahahhahahahahahahah
I was about to type this!
Do you usually facepalm other people?
I want to smoke weed with KT someday. Fun Guy.
Karan Talwar, I officially have a crush on you.
Call Mensutra on the podcast
and thanks for mentioning me :-)
Giridhar Guptha wrong giridhar😂😂
Mensutra (shwetabh ) ko bulao kvi podacst pe 😙
Aditya Raj has yaar pls
Aditya Raj please
Bahut chillata hai
Yes!
The topics you guys choose are hilarious, really like all podcasts of yours.
1:09 Did Aadar Malik just crack his first joke ?
This moment will go down in history boys.
Time to pop open a champagne.
Soumitra Saxena the timing of the punch was perfect!!! 😂😂😂
1:05 .. *lookup the word incidious .... 1 2 3* 😂😂
MyJio4G App asks for my property deed details too!!
This whole thing is freaking crazy. I work in this field and the kind of specific targeting you can do to narrow your audience is actually insane. If you want to know Facebook s biography of you go to your settings and go to ads now look at my categories and look at your whole life's description in ten lines.
PSYCHOGIRL why are you always here
Sarthak Mishra 😂😂😂
Thanks, didn't know that. I don't understand what's crazy about it though, it's open knowledge that your data is being collected so you get targeted ads. People are only freaking out because it was used to push political propoganda this time, which users can choose not to get influenced by.
gargee basak I don't mind advertisers knowing what stuff I like/consume and shopping preferences. I'm not comfortable with them knowing my phone, card numbers.
PSYCHOGIRL great info
i just opened Instagram and zoomed into the first photo i came across....
did u get a targeted ad to South Africa!
Damn you SNG, Facebook heard your idea of making Facebook a dating app!
I think you guys are strong influencers and there is a gigantic portion of youth that looks up to ya'll. I would like your take on the Podcast on the Kathua Case.
Kaush Roy *insert doubt meme
Kaush Roy why.. unnecessary
25 minute long video. Released 10 mins ago. 9 dislikes -___-
KT s face when he learns IG has zoom in feature. Too cute. you reached Uncle status. congrats. Cant wait to see Varun in US tour. SNG needs to do a tour too. Love from Boston.
Kelsang Dolma Where is Varun’s tour in US?
Milya SF all major cities in USA and more. Check out varun s Instagram page. I think tickets are on ticket hungama
U know u actually like sng when u watch the podcast even when only these 3 r present!!!
You might not believe this but the eavesdropper ads came to me as well. And I tried the same trick of talking about a product (Like South Africa) but did not work the second time
Call brock lesnar and talk about steroids
Hell yeah. Make this guy famous!
Woah...red john sas here...now that we have seen the mark we need to find the body🧐
It was quite evident that the guys sans Karan came very ill prepared on the subject.. Dude i m a regular here and expect more sensible skull sessions from you guyz on such comprehensive subjects! Please don't disappoint the next time, thanks, Cheers!
"Bahadur bille" 😂😂😂 it's awesome!!! plz send me the shirt small size one
Should have done this podcast after being high on weed. Ideas would have been lit!😂
So you don't give root access when an app is reading your messages it is just the read only permission for the incoming SMS.
Your podcasts are really interesting!
Is that swat Kats in Hindi t-shirt on kautuk ??
I thought Aadar deleted the facebook app. Why he took his phone out to yell South Africa XD ?
One of the best podcast by SnG.. Karan had some interesting n good inputs🙂
Kautuk’s idea of charity thumbs up👍🏻 Loved the podcast.
8:50.....Aadar laughing at is own joke....... that is literally me right now. XD
Maybe the next Big question could be on if you’ll believe if karma exists?

the auto otp thing is not cus the app has ur root access its because it has sms access
root access is something totally different
there is a setting on facebook where you can download what data facebook has about you. I downloaded it (approx 60 mb zip file) and facebook has photographs which i sent to my friend long time ago. The crazy shit is that i had deleted the messages and pics long time ago and it is still there
Bhartendu Vimal where is this setting exactly
Milya SF you need to login to your fb account on desktop or laptop. Got to settings tab...then there will a option in blue to download a copy of your Facebook data
Excellent point on dodging the Facebook driven free internet.

Aadar’s biggest fan is kautak.
Where is the other one??
Karan knows rocket science shit...but doesn't know zoom feature on Insta 😂😭
OTP requires Message read permission, Using root permission for it will be overkill.
Also, Kautuk, you can download all your data by requesting facebook for a copy and then delete your account.
Is there a cut just after 2:58
My Tuesdays are incomplete without TBQ.

Invite Amit Shah and discuss Indian judiciary.
koutuk: if this doesn't work we would look really stupid.
me: as opposed to? **gestures at everything**
on serious note keep em coming guys always enjoy your podcasts.
Remember singhania kautuk?..... gave us a lecture on social media 😂😂😂
Mark would be listening to this n being like... "hmmm I should steal this idea too!""
Just to clarify: both the pronunciations of DATA, are correct. 'Daetaa' is the British pronunciation and 'Daataa' is the American pronunciation.
All my school friends are on FB so I have to be there,and at the age of 35 I'am not going to lose them again 😂😂😂
If you watch an ad saying trump did a good thing after watching it for 1000 time you will start to think its true... It changes your perspective
prescription, you mean
One of the rare times SNG podcast was intellectual
You guys are awesome 😎
guys please at least be 4 members in a podcast, love more ideas about crazy topics.
Brilliant !! Was fun
Browsing facebook and watching this video.
Guys,
To understand how data leak actually works take example of Adhar in last few mins of podcast. Just by Koutuks saying Zuckerberg few times Adhar pronounced giraffe as JIRAF.....
Now the leaked data is gonna feed you processed/ altered info in your subconscious mind to do things....
Wow they got nostalgic about the old facebook at 22.13. #majorFeels
The feature (6:22) of reading the SMS for an OTP can also be done without giving root access, it is a basic feature, your phone doesn't have to be rooted.

My guy Karan Talwar wearing a rockets cap is a GG
Aadars pronunciation was the most funny thing today 😂🙌
When you understand all the inside jokes😂
OTP features is due to access to reading messages not root access 😂😂 you have to be rooted to give some app a root access
fuck i think im old too, i just found out recently you can zoom in on instagram
3 weeks out of Facebook, life has not been better. By the way if you guys start a Phiasbuk, I am joining it :D
Finally mics are working properly
Who is giridhar?
The moment KT said "ROOT ACCESS" i was like "woaaahhh". KT man you are ssly well versed with the topics that you discuss. Keep it up man! 😎
Where is Muscleman nowdays?
Karan's eye opener stole the show! 🤣😂
👍👍
Do a episode on how u guys met and what was the first impression.
Was it modi whom they called genocidal mass murderer ??
I would love to see your views on, how internet can be used to solve real world problems?
Guys, do a vid on "Indian music vs rest of the world music"
It would be fun
Didn't Aadar say he had deleted his Facebook app. Ad aayegi kaha, lol 😂😂😂
I wouldnt blame Mark for the mess and the greed that has seeped into FB. A clean tech firm has been spoiled by the "great businesswoman " Sherly Sandberg. Ever since she has taken over, I have seen FB turn into this money chomping machine.
Mark needs to return to his techie role and chuck Sheryl out. That would be a good starting point!
buzzfeed did this experiment already about the phone listening and It did not really work.
Varun spices up the podcast 🤘🏻
Applications (especially Facebook and Whatsapp) should not work at all after midnight 😝 ;
Well Karan came prepared.....
Can *SOMEONE* please educate me on what this Kriti Sanon / Giridhar / Nepotism thing is?
Karan has some good thoughts and points, Kautuk and Aadar veto him with their kiddish fantasies
Guys do some sketches, put up some other kinds of videos too, I Know you people are busy, but please bring the variety back .😊
I want to see the Musically ad with Kenny Sebastian in it, instead of this.
Do a podcast on circumstances leading to WW3.
bhai 13 min me 24 comments
.......m always late
neville needed to be on this
Today Karan was making more sense than Kautuk. Let him speak baba. He is more intellectual than guys these days.
Do a podcast on "why we lost indipop"
Yep. Let's lumpenize a very complex issue, and reduce it to targeted underwear ads. Only Karan seemed slightly informed on the subject, but its easy to see how his focus is not knowing, but to project that he knows... the other two monkeys are proving the point here - naivety breeds ignorance.
