They use Google tag manager in their signup page. Translation, Google will know your user name, tie it to your real identity, and will track everything you say.
They'll track everything you share, like, comment, etc. You're helping them build a profile on you. Unless you're completely insulated from all advertising, they will find ways to "nudge" you into making purchases and forming opinions.
Nudging is a slow process that happens on the subconscious level: https://www.convertize.com/what-is-nudge-marketing/
Nudge marketing refers to deliberately manipulating how choices are presented to consumers. Its goal is to influence what consumers choose, either to steer them toward options that the marketer believes are good for them or simply to stimulate purchases and increase sales
Nowhere did I say to fear anything. I said a gettr account is telegraphing your evert action to google. If you're okay with that then so be it.
The danger is because they pose as an "alternative" platform that's "free" -- unlike facebook twitter etc. where people expect to have zero privacy. It's like thinking you're inside your own home when really google's cameras are in every room.
Act accordingly.
GETTR is telegraphing my every action to google? Dude, just going online your ISP, your browser, your cookies is telegraphing everything you do to google. I don't understand what you don't see about this.
Refusing to make a GETTR account is NOT keeping your information anymore safe from google than anything else. IF you're using standard browsers, and a regular internet connection on a windows computer your ISP and google are tracking you anyway. How is using GETTR exposing you anymore than you already are expose???
Not true. Your ISP does not route all of your data packets through Google, that is just wrong and shows a fundamental misunderstanding on your part.
I don't understand the fundamentals, maybe so. So me using GETTR all my data packets are going through GOOGLE? I'm not an expert IT guy, but that makes NO sense.
Correct, routes are part of the service. I think OP is disappointed this means there is no mass platform still that is AWS, Alphabet, NWO free.
Think of it like this. You and your friend / brother got walkie talkies for Christmas so you could shoot the shit about your parents, girls, etc. But it turns out that the signal gets rerouted to your parents, so they can hear you saying everything.
Gettr is marketed as the alternative to big tech. But they're feeding big tech.
Stop misleading people.
Everything I said is true.
