Right at this exact moment if all your friends & family & law enforcement saw all your search engine history, would you be embarrassed? Anything you'd want to delete before they see it?
What search history.....?
Not in the slightest. I don’t care if they know my darkest kinks. That’s life. Everyone has something out of the ordinary that appeals to them. I owe no one any explanation for it. Nothing I enjoy is illegal so let them see.
It honestly baffles me that so many people feel so ashamed of liking porn when they logically know that nearly everyone else likes it too.
100% and I sure as shit ain't posting it here. 🤣
Search history? nah, who cares.
Calculator history? plz don't look, i promise i'm good at math.
Dear police officers: I'm sure you're excited to begin your journey learning all about electronic engineering and product design!
If you have any questions, drop by any time and I'll be happy to help. I hope you find these hobbies as rewarding as I do.
Nope. If anything they see shocks them, a) that's their problem, not mine and b) serves them right for snooping
One day there will be a worm that goes around the internet and will be able to link each comment and/or post to the actual physical person that made them. A global database will be created where anyone can look up an individual person and see everything they've posted on the internet, even if it was behind an anonymous username.
I don't doubt that. And I do fear it. And I'm pretty sure they're already doing it, but the Mass public doesn't have access to it yet, because every time I establish an account somehow Google tries to get involved. You know Google could be that worm to connect everything.
I don't like it because I thrive in anonymity and although I never do anything wrong (like literally if you run a background check on me, it comes back squeaky clean)
whatever the case, I just feel more freedom with anonymity, you know what I mean? That's why I try so hard to not affiliate all my new usernames with Google, but it's all tied together because even if you try to separate Google from anything, they still find a way to get in there.
My recorded search history is so boring. If I have to search for anything sketchy or where I wouldn't want to be inundated with ads related to the search, I do it incognito so the search isn't stored.
Your recorded history may not be stored locally. Would be shocking if Google didn't have some way of de-anonymizing searches.
Is Pornhub a search engine? Cause my queries on there would probably raise some eyebrows.
Oh do Please list them all here 😛
I'll set the mood for you, here, start with this:
[NSFW]
Yes. The internet.
To be honest law enforcement (at least in the IT department of things) would be pretty used to anything at this point so why feel embarrassed?
You'll probably be added to a tally on the wall listed with examples such as: 'How to blow your own dick?' or 'Another Bronie.' or 'Wiki rabbit hole addict.'
Spell checks and basic maths.
Nah, at worst I'm just searching for things I should reasonably know like "do I need to cook X before eating" or something. Why would I ever search for something weird with my search history on?
Librewolf be like:
When I was younger, I'd be mortified. Now? "If into the archives you go, only pain will you find." You didn't have to look, so that's on you, my dude.
I have a habbit of searching my own name a few times a week and sorting by new, to check if my name appears somewhere. It makes sense to me, but I would be self-conscious about it if someone asked me why tf I am looking myself up so often as if I'm famous
My full name is the same as that of a comic book character in an obscure comic book. I don't have any major social media accounts, so most of the results that come up are of that character.
Not a chance I'd be embarrassed. I look up a ton of how to videos and hours upon hours of research on best tools for the job. If anything they'd get bored unless they're planning to do some car repairs.
No
Not possible search history get deleted every time I close the browser.
Porn. It's always porn
Its all just weird physics and RF stuff, all they would find out is that I am a giant nerd. Some examples: common base colpitts oscillator, inductance calculator, temerature PIN detector FWHM.
Nope. Yes, that search I just did for how to break my network security. They don't need to know that, they can figure that shit out on their own.
Nothing I haven't already deleted!
Only a scrub would search something embarrassing and not delete it afterwards, or just use a web browser that deletes it every session
or they live alone and never share their devices with anyone.
or they live openly & freely and DGAF what other people think about their browsing history
But now you've put a song in my head 🤣
Assuming it magically can get my search history despite incognito, vpn etc I'd probably just ask them not to look at it, Embarrassing maybe but nothing that would get me in any trouble and anyone whose opinion I care about I trust wouldn't want to see it anyway
I’m sure they’d be thrilled to look into my wanting better turn signals for my car and turn signals at all for my bike.
If that ever happens I'll become both SCP-096 and SCP-096-1
Any archives of me would be so massive I doubt they'd be able to make sense of it. The only thing I'd particularly prioritize removing traces of is the fact that I came across a certain guy (and no shit I really did) while in a few places. No, not supporting the guy whatsoever, but he has an expansive legacy, only somewhat better than Dark Helmet.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Thanks, Pipey.
Are you saying you found Kim jong-un involved in atrocities on the dark web? sorry if I'm reading between the lines too deeply but that's what I gathered from your comment.
I found him outside of it. He's out in the open in a lot of places, if you know where to look. He seems to confine those atrocities away from the open though.
"JFC so many searches related to elisp and linux..."
My search history is permanently deleted every time I close the browser. So no, I wouldn't be embarassed at the 20 or so searches I did today
Big titties removed
Oh shit, wrong place.
Sup peeps! Take a break, I'm not going anywhere. They don't pay you enough to stay in that van all day.
Nah. I'd probably delete a fair amount so they weren't embarrassed themselves though.
And I learned by watching the news in cases like Jared fogle, nothing can actually ever be deleted from hard drives & clouds. Even everything we've ever posted to Reddit and thought we deleted it, everything is always available somewhere for the experts to find.
News-related stuff mainly. With a healthy dose of helldivers 2 questions recently. So, no, not really.
