Origin of data broker? How does WhatsApp earn?

So What the Hell Is the Dark Side of Social Media from Pocket. The question started very simply. But the answer will drag you into a dark world you can't even imagine. Something that is affecting me every day and we need to shed light on some events to understand everything.


During the last one and a half years of pandemic, when people were struggling to survive, the amount of money of a person has reached 2-200 crores. Only three people in the world own more than ten thousand billion US dollars. He is one of them. The name is Mark Zuckerberg. CEO of Facebook. And maybe you are working ten to five office, returning home hanging by bus or busy getting a college degree. Your bank balance is almost zero, your spending is abnormally high. You feel that the office does not pay you properly. A large number of your credit card bills are due. Thoughts of the world in the head, house, family, future, children. But your two fingers are busy scrolling the mobile screen.


Facebook, from Facebook to TikTok from there to Instagram or WhatsApp sometimes Snapchat. Someone is keeping you busy. And here comes the darkest world called the dark side of social media. The industry that sells your personal information is worth two hundred billion dollars. You heard the number correctly. These are called data brokers. Those who are doing business with information in Sahaj Bengali. What information do they do business with? What is their business capital? All your information.


 Suppose you want to buy a watch. Maybe he wrote men's wrist watch on Facebook and searched. Or asked a friend of the messenger to know about this. The friend may not have even seen the message, but after a few minutes your news feed started coming across ads for watches. Yes, Facebook's artificial intelligence bot has learned that you're thinking of buying a watch now that it won't buy you a watch. You didn't even know how Facebook Messenger or any other social media that gave you free service turned you into their product. You are not the customer, you are the product. To social media you are nothing but a product and they are making the best use of that product. your name? Age Height Weight. Mail address. Phone number, home town. Your relationship status. Where do you work? How many family members? How old are they? What do you like? What do you dislike? How intense are your shopping habits, your political ideology, religious beliefs, what do you eat? do you read Even from your uploaded Facebook status or pictures, Facebook artificial intelligence sees what food or clothes you really like. All these data are in their business.




You can think that fifty or sixty people know this. But those fifty, sixty people know and data brokers have this information. The distance between the two is day and night. Data brokers exist to sell this information and they don't need to hack your Facebook account to get this information. There is no need to insert any secret spyware into the mobile. You are taking these information in order. A separate profile is being opened in your name somewhere. Here you can think about how to give this information to someone else. Like a picture of you. Double tab. Something that feels good. Like. New relationship. Update status. Married even created. Everything. All your likes and dislikes activities are generating an online version of you on social media. When you visit a website or app, you automatically click on the I agree button in their terms and conditions. How do you think you need to read? There are cookies allowed on the website. Not knowing the function of cookies. Then those data once twice. Beat hundreds. Being sold to different buyers. An agency is making billions of dollars by selling some seemingly unnecessary information in your eyes. Whose names you may have never heard in your life. Jamaat Bali Hapitia, who was once in charge of Facebook's user growth. Now he says he has tremendous guilt about the social network he helped build. And he is not the only social media activist who is blowing the whistle. According to a report published in the Guardian in 2019.


We spend an average of 145 minutes on social media every day. In other words, we spend two and a half hours every day only calling Facebook news feeds. Out of three hundred and sixty-five days a year, we only use Facebook for thirty-six and five days. What a waste of time. The Economist printed an article a few days ago with the headline The Sun Never Sets. Thirty-nine percent of the world is scrolling through Facebook right now as you read this blog.


 And two out of five are busy checking notifications in the middle of the night. A new user is being added to Facebook every twelve seconds in Bangladesh. Which is more than the country's birth rate. But remember it's only just.

A few days ago, in an elite area of ​​Dhaka, a member of the armed forces jumped from the roof of a tall building and while going to another roof made a mistake and fell between two buildings. He died immediately. Later it is known that he was making a video of park over to upload to Tik Tok. A few days later, a twenty-three-year-old Chinese popular Tik Tok star, Siwa Qiume, got on a train that was 160 feet high and was doing a live video. This is where these global dangerous trends were supposed to stop but not. But no. Another trend called Blackout challenge is also on TikTok. Challengers have to hold their breath until they faint. To take the pain of the United States on Monday, members of the law enforcement agencies recovered the frozen body of a twelve-year-old boy from an apartment. He died in the black out challenge. All over America, three boys died in the same trend. There is only one link between these deaths. 


TikTok In August 2018, the Chinese social media platform TikTok came to the digital platform of the United States. Three years later, six out of every ten teenagers in the United States are using it. This explosion of short video applications. It may seem surprising when it is known that TikTok's parent company, Bike Dance, has spent more than a billion dollars on advertising their brand in the year 2018 alone. Then his does not seem unusual. TikTok has been downloaded more than one billion times in seventy-five languages ​​in one hundred and fifty countries. Last year it was considered as the most valuable startup in the world. Which is worth fifty eight billion US dollars.

Earlier this year, TikTok became the world's most downloaded app, beating Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram. But it was during this time that they got banned in America and remained banned in India for a long time. But nothing could stop them from increasing the number of users. One such addiction is called Tiktok. Behind Hamilon's flute player, all the rats in the city were hypnotized and ran into the water.

 Just like this generation Tik Tok is like the fiddler of Babylon. One billion downloads means countless more sick competitors. Many TikTokers have entered a fake contest to pretend to be themselves. Someone is dying while making a video of jumping from that roof. Someone is paralyzed by an accident while riding a bike at a speed of one and a half hundred kilometers with the camera open. A few days ago in Mumbai, India, a boy made a bet with his friends by recording a video of jumping from one train to another while it was moving, and uploaded it on Tiktok. will do The consequences are death. They think these are adventures. No. These are stupid. Surrender to the stream of its name, abandoning conscience. Being addicted to virality has to pay the price in the end. And the most and most difficult reality is that this platform is pretending not to see everything.


TikTok has inspired people to engage in much more risky behavior. Just to earn revenue. They have imposed the desire among people to follow the easy road to come into the light of publicity by doing strange activities, detached from reality. Teens are embarking on a mission to present themselves as attractive at an early age. In 2009, Brian and Jane created an alternative secure instant machining app called WhatsApp.


How does WhatsApp earn?

In 2014, Facebook bought WhatsApp from them for $19 billion. In 2014, NASA's annual budget was nineteen billion dollars. Can you imagine the amount of money is unbelievable. Just think how WhatsApp is earning. There are no ads in the app and you don't have to spend money to buy the app. There is no possibility of information being smuggled in the app called in to encryption system.


So what is their source of income? This is my effect. You are that product. As a companion app of Facebook, WhatsApp automatically receives a lot of information from you. Access to your phone number, contact list through WhatsApp is going to Facebook. From there, Facebook Algorithm and Facebook's artificial intelligence are creating a list of target audience and potential customers. The calculation is very simple. If you add a new number to the phone's contact list, you will see that person's Facebook account showing in your news feed or his ID appearing in the Instagram feed. It's no coincidence, it's all a game of data piracy. In today's era, whoever has more data is more powerful and Facebook is leading the business of this data monopoly in the digital world. No other company in the world has the amount of information they have. That's why it is said that what Facebook and Google know about you, you don't even know about yourself. Not only that, the game of millions of dollars is going on behind the scenes. Snapchat launched a service called Spotlight last November to compete with TikTok. At the same time, the company said it will pay the creator behind its top video a million dollars per day. Now their policy, all or nothing. Short videos are being created by TikTok, YouTube is creating a strong competitor in the story. Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, they needed something different to survive in the market. Which they did in that one million dollar give away. Just imagine the addiction of playing a million dollars a day.




 It doesn't cost much to use social media. All you need is cheap mobile data or broadband internet connection. Social network apps are made with unlimited scrolling design. As a result, they do not come out quickly. They are making mountains of money sucking you. In the hands of this media, the more your addiction, the more their profit. Night after night from boys and girls to adults are now busy on social networks. Addiction to social media is taking a more toll on many people's lives than drug addiction. A jammi generation has developed and they have no good relationship with their families. They do not know how to mix with people. He does not consider it necessary to mix with anyone. They think of life sitting in a small room with a mobile or laptop. They have no idea about the whole world that lies outside of it.


 These social media keep you focused on trending topics by taking you away from the real issue. With money in your pocket, society is full of corruption, mismanagement, irregularities and lawlessness. The whole country is going through an economic crisis, the price of everything is high in the market, you are sitting unemployed, the job market is depressed, a few people have hoarded all their wealth, the rest are sitting hoping for a little comfortable life, but without thinking about it, you are thinking about the clothes of a heroine or a model. . But you were not supposed to be Mercury in this useless addiction. All over your news feed is a world of lies. That utopia keeps you far away from reality. Dear visitor, we have informed you. How much personal information will be given to them through free services? It will be up to you. Prevention 8s better than cure. thank you So far today.

Why the US government 30$ trillion owe?

  The United States is in a lot of debt. Currently the country owes $27.2 trillion. But who would even lend them that much money? Who does the US owe this massive sum?  Well, the answer to that is pretty simple. In large part, it owes itself that money, but there's also quite a few other countries it owes to. the US essentially owes two groups of people, the general public, which can be other countries or even investors in the US and itself. But before we get into who makes up those groups and what the percentages look like, first let's get some basics. Whenever the US government needs money, it raises that money through the issuing of savings bonds or treasury bonds. These bonds are basically pieces of paper that say the US will pay the person or agency that buys it back with a little bit of interest. Many people want to buy bonds because they're pretty solid investments, like banks, foreign governments, and maybe even you. The debt ceiling, which you may have heard about,...

Are we alone in the universe?

A dog! They are looking at the stars in the sky. As we see. May or may not be breathing. Creating or not creating. But one question is right between them. Just like us. Are we alone in the universe? When the Armstrongs returned from the moon, they were quarantined for several days. Why? Because if a virus or any other germs came through them from the moon, i.e. very close to our satellite, scientists thought about the possibility of life in this satellite, isn't it strange? Let's go to the universe in search of life. Earth is the only source of life? This question is very old. There are ten thousand times more stars in our Milky Way alone than there are sand dunes on this planet. To be more precise, this number is ten to the power twenty-two to ten to the power twenty-four or more. If five percent of its stars are like our sun, then the number stands at five hundred billion billion stars. Very good talk. If we assume that even one out of every five Sun-like stars has water and ...

What is a stock split?

When you enjoy stock in a company, you enjoy a portion of the company itself. When that company makes further plutocrats and the stock price goes up, you can make plutocrats by buying and dealing with the stock.  But what happens when the company decides to do a stock split? And why would a company indeed want to resolve their stock in the first place?  Stock splits are when a company divides the share of its stock into a multiple of generally two or three, but it can go as high as 100 or indeed 1000. So if a company had 1000 shares on the request, a stock split would turn those shares into 2000 or 3000 shares generally. And if you possessed one share at the time of A2 for one stock split, you'd all of an unforeseen own 2 shares of the company but the price would also be cut in half. unyoking a stock does not add any value innately. It's not a way for companies to just double their request cap. So why would companies do this just for fun? Well, unyoking a stock and therefore p...

Why do Bangladeshis hate India?

The liberation war is going on in December 1771. India didn't share directly in the emancipation war. They're conducting political conditioning on behalf of Bangladesh. About one crore deportees have taken retreat in India. The temporary headquarters of the Mujibnagar Government has been set up in Kolkata.

What is Algorithmic trading as well Arbitrage trading? How does it works?

This stock request can be, if Coracias, beast to those that do not understand it, but currently you do not indeed need to understand it to make a plutocrat. The rise of the digital information age and AI has brought about a new way of stock trading called algorithmic trading. occasionally appertained to as automated trading or black box trading. This is basically a program that can trade stocks at high pets and frequency impeccably in line with the request. These programs are given constraints and instructions like timing, price, quantum, et cetera. And a stoner can OK tune how exactly they work. So how does it work also? Let's take a look.

What is infinite money glitch? How does work fractional reserve banking system ?

  What if I told you that the entire modern financial system functioned on an infinite money glitch where billions, no trillions of dollars were created out of thin air day after day, and at any point the whole system could collapse? Oh, you. You wouldn't be surprised.    But what I just said was the truth, and it's something called fractional reserve banking, otherwise known as the Infinite Money glitch. Here's how it works.  When someone deposits $1000 in the bank, the bank does not hold on to all of that money. Rather, the bank will just keep 10% a $100 as reserves and then loan out the rest or $900 to other people or companies charging interest on the loan. Making additional money for the bank, the Lendy, or the person that took out the $900 loan then goes on to spend that money. To simplify the scenario, we'll say that that person with a $900 loan immediately paid someone else that $900. At this point, when looking at this small financial system, there's a tota...
