Privacy & Freedom in the Information Age www.reddit.com

So I recently bought a used phone of someone, and when I got it they were still logged into their Google and YouTube accounts. I put my sim card into the phone temporarily before logging them out of everything and factory resetting the phone.

I opened their YouTube to check if they were logged in, and saw their subscriptions/recommendations which was mostly children's YouTube videos (kind of colourful, 3d animation, foreign language stuff).

Anyway, took out sim card, factory reset, …
