You explain things very well and are very thorough, in my opinion, and your topics are very interesting to me. I'm glad I found you early :D Hope your channel grows. Keep going!

3:25 there are two possible scenarios that are technically possible even if the passwords are encrypted on their end:

1) They only match if some services was compromised and you have passwords saved for that domain, they'll warn you.
2) If they match if your specific credentials was compromised, they can match their encrypted password with a list of compromised password mapped with the same function they use to encrypt yours. Which is literally what happens when you login to any service every.

{HAD TO SPLIT THE COMMENT IN 2 BECAUSE TOO LONG, CHECK THE FIRST REPLIED COMMENT FOR THE REST}
Firstly, I'd like to say that the content you make is pretty good, which is why so many people are supporting you. Just a suggestion about it, you might want to be a bit more calmed down, as in it often feels like you get a bit into a hurry when explaining something, which *kind of* portrays you, at least in my opinion, a bit nervous (which I can understand you probably aren't). Also I can see the hint of Bengali towards the end (Thikache) :P


Next up, here is what I feel about the stuff you said about Chrome,
I agree, but not completely. (I'm not trying to defend Chrome, just trying to have a discussion)

1. About Continue Running Background Apps- I think it is a reasonable default to go to, because for most users who are going to use Chrome, are not supposed to be Tech Savvy and there's a high chance they'll want that on anyways. Stuff like this helps in faster load times. Its not like they are using it to JUST spy, as you made the point, like keeping webcam/mic on for meets, but that's not the way you close Meet. And as of the feature being (probably) used inappropriately by Google, I agree its probably so, but its probably not in the way you are saying. It might be used to know/track what apps you are using, and maybe behaviour patterns of you on your PC (which I agree is wrong). But the way you talked about this, it kinda feels like giving paranoia to the viewers (not accusing you) and just feels a bit wrong to me

2. About Password Breaches- I am not sure, but I think there is a possibility that Google is actually telling the truth. They can have the Encrypted Hash of your username & password, and they could check those Hashes with the Encrypted Hashed of the Database

3. About Activity- Well, tracking web and App activity has their benefits and their downfalls, some people will find that these activities being tracked by Google helpful. (I personally don't think it is) It provides relevant content to the people, which is what some want, contextual advertisements/news/content in their reach, without having to look for that by themselves, making consumption of such content easier for them. And yes, I do realise that they have their business incentives, but this feature is something a lot of people want by default.

4. About Help Page and Policy Page- I think you were a bit too harsh on Google. I understand that you clearly do not agree with the stuff they've written on their help page, but I believe that you should also let the people decide their opinions. You can bring stuff to their attention, but the formation of belief is in their hands. If you show your bias so strongly, that's not correct. Just classifying help pages as absolute B***s*** & just clearly insulting the Privacy Policy page is not right imho. If you want to have a debate, or just showcase an Argument, please go with good reasoning which can convince people compared to just calling something B***s***

5. About Privacy Policy Webpage- I understand that we all use Google Chrome as a tool, to view websites. And that is its primary purpose for our users. But you also have to understand that they need some kind of tracking to make it possible for them to make profits. I know they could've gone for other stuff, but they went with this. And they do care all of the data they have about you. They create your profiles and generate money out of ads and stuff, yes. But it is nearly never shared to Third parties, as such, in a way which comprises your privacy as a person. And what they mean by putting "you in control", is that you can atleast modify the data being collected by them. Not like, completely stopping it, nope they aren't gonna let you do that (they need some criticism for that). So being overly sarcastic about this, isn't that fair. If you had rather spoke about this fact, it'd be more helpful

6. About Recommendations- I think you lie in the more extreme spectrum when it comes to recommendations from youtube and similar (there's nothing wrong in that). But you also need to understand the fact, that not everyone is like that. A lot of people like getting content which suits their tastes. So making a point like that, is a bit too extreme, because it is unrepresentative of the audience you have, it is kinda like abusing their preferences in my opinion.

7. About Language thingy- I feel it is completely ridiculous on their end, to specify tracking all that stuff just for Language (really silly). But you used the term 'keylogging', which is absolutely wrong terminology. That's something really bad on another level, which isn't done by google as of now. So please don't use terms which aren't correct. Also, please note that, the language feature is actually useful in some cases, even tho the amount of data they are collecting is too much for just that. The browser locale/location/ip should be enough to detect the language. However, don't criticise the language feature itself because there's a lot of people, who don't use English, and haven't been taught so. So you can think of language feature as an important accessibility tool, which honestly makes stuff more accessible for all.

8. About Voice stuff- Well, I'm not that qualified to talk about Google voice but I feel that every voice assistant actually needs to develop itself, and it actually needs input and data on how to work. Now, I can understand that giving away so much data is not okay, but to train an AI to be a proper assistant, the data is required. However, I feel that, Google possibly could add a mode for those who don't want their Voice Assistant to be that personalised. Just saying, this personalisation is something which makes these Voice Assistant like a real assistant, which can understand you better and help you more in getting/doing the things you want.
