11. Audio recordings titles are generic and serialized so make sure to take some precautions before listening to them in front of your SO, family or randoms. Please don’t make my mistake..-

12. Not the google, but hopefully on topic,
I have downloaded my data from Facebook, and the most shocking one was a recorded phone conversation of about 30 minutes long. It was dated back around 5-7 years ago, and most surprisingly it was not even me who was speaking and I could not even recognize who it was…

13. Google knows every location I’ve been to for the last couple of months. They stored multiple audio files of me talking to colleagues and friends and worst of all, I did not know they were doing that.
My mind is blown and I’m terrified, my private information is no one’s business, Google.

14. Not so much that it was stored info, but I was cooking dinner when a friend came in from out of town, and I was making three potatoes. I had never microwaved three and went to search how long to cook them for. I typed in how long to MICR… and the first suggestion was microwave three potatoes. That’s not even the weirdest thing that’s happened, just the most recent.

15. I feel like I should have more of a problem with Google having my data. Especially voice recordings. But after going through what they had. It’s like 400 recordings of me saying make some coffee, play X on Netflix and turn off the lights.
Maybe it’s a bigger problem for people that use their assistants for more than home control.

16. Hardly anything was saved, I’m very picky in what I allow an app to access. Sometimes a limited function is annoying but it seems it pays off!

17. It wasn’t google data that shocked me, I am kind of expecting it to know everything about me. This came from Instagram.
My period was very late, so naturally, I told my husband in our very private and quiet home setting and bought a Clearblue pregnancy test. We don’t own tv, Amazon Alexa, google voice or similar. I just have Instagram on my smartphone. My period was just late, but the very next day I got bombarded by ads on Instagram about Clearblue and other pregnancy sticks and some other baby sh*t.
There is no way that it was a coincidence since it was the second time getting a very, very specific ad. So the app is listening, and showing me ads accordingly.

18. My purchase history on websites like eBay, Amazon and other companies that (I guess) all sell their data about me to Google. I had no idea of it and although I share things like my location to Google, seeing my purchases is kind of scary because I never allowed it.

19. They had tracked literally EVERYWHERE I had been since 2015. They knew every STORE I’d visited, what date and what time. Every restaurant, every hair salon, every nightclub, every plant nursery, you name it, they stored it! Google had it all. All innocuously stored under the title “Google Timeline”.

20. So many drunken audios. Like, not even meant for the phone, just background talking while (most of the times) very drunk, it was half unsettling half fun to listen to them.
Apparently, when you press the microphone on the keyboard (I think it’s for changing audio to text) it gets sent to Google.

21. Wow, mine is seriously boring. Nothing juicy.

22. Just requested it. Kinda scared.

23. My first ever Google search was “what is a chicken” and the second was “are chickens real?”

24. Whenever I played back an okay google there was some sound before I say okay google recorded, its kinda creepy and I hope the operation of data is all offline until an okay google is detected.

25. That there is a map of everywhere I went in the last couple of years that’s accurate to the hour.
