The most shocking, and somewhat disturbing, aspect of that is that my mom has a Facebook page when she’s been dead for well over 50 years.

Well that explains her dry, ashy skin.

TD, mostly the OT.


OT and SEC OT are the best parts of this site and social media in general

All shapes and sizes (except the Poli Board)

While I am guessing my name would make the Top 25 of cajun names and Top 25 of creole names (and probably both), this is the only social media I use (TD) and the only one I recommend to others to use.

In short, not me

Have you considered Facebook is using LinkedIns barrage of backdoor request to add you to their horde (main reason I never joined Linked In)?

Suggestion to everyone, when you post a youtube link delete everything AFTER the "=" or you are sharing your real account. And likely your google account and everything else.


False

YouTube URLs use name/value pairs to pass various types of values to the server.

For example, below is the URL of a video for an OU-based podcast that you can "embed" on TD using the <> tags.

The "v=" is a unique identifier for the video.

The "t=" indicates to start the video at the 26-second mark.

Each name/value pair is separated by the ampersand (&) symbol.

LINK

Neither your YouTube account nor your Google account can be derived from any of that.

K**** Wa**** and St*** Mul**** have shared videos from their accounts to this site that I clicked on. Also itzberry.

When you clicked their links it said that is who shared the video. If you'd like I can try to remember the next time someone does it.

Since most people use their google account to log into YouTube these days it is pretty easy to trace.

Be aware, that any profile you view, will stay tattooed to your account for 6 months. It's hidden in the background and you can't delete it like you can other things.


It is called "meta" data (pun intended). "Meta" in the generic sense, not related to the name of the company.

Anything you post on the internet contains "meta" data of some sort.

For example, of you upload a picture from your phone, the internet will know when and where the picture was taken, what kind of camera, etc. Maybe even your name and phone number.

And there are apps out there that can skim all of that data and present it in readable form to the user.

Very easy to do. It happens a lot.

All you need is a picture, a name, and an email address, and you can create an FB page for that person, with or without their permission.

I made a thread about it on here when it happened, but a friend that I grew up with passed away earlier this year, and when I went to look for his obit on google, I found several fake obit pages and fb pages with random photos, false info, etc. They were clearly created by bots or people in an Indian sweatshop.

Are you saying that those people have shared videos to the SoonerScoop.com YouTube channel site?

They very well may have. I don't recognize those names, but they might be people who work for SoonerScoop and are responsible for uploading videos to their channel.

I posted the URL. The question I have is, are you able to determine my YouTube or Google account names from that URL?

Yes, share and cut/paste the URL are not the same thing

I do believe you can put your setting to hide your channel when sharing this way.

I think people who tend to share this way are using a youtube app on their phones where copy/paste isn't really available
