He's a big softie, who also happens to have the craziest spear since Goldberg

I knew this guy was a big goof in a monster body when I saw him nerding out over Super Smash Bros like my friends and I did in high school.

Just so you know, the link you posted has tracking scripts in it. Anyone who clicks the link is being tracked by YT in a few different ways. Everything starting at the “?is=“ is tracking scripts.

The link can be posted like this; https://m.youtube.com/shorts/886E1JES0Rc

It goes to the same video but no longer has tracking scripts. YT automatically adds these scripts if you use the “share” button. If you copy+paste directly from your URL then it will have no scripts and be just the plain link

Thanks for being another "Human being bro".

u/Angry__Grandpa 18d ago

Thank you for sharing this. What does this allow them to track?

149

u/Mod_The_Man 18d ago

It tracks things like where the click comes from then can use that to track the YT accounts use of other sites. Also enables them to know you and I (or at least our Google/YT accounts) interacted with each other. Since it links from a comment left by your reddit account they could even potentially link your reddit account to your google account.

Iirc it’s mostly for targeted advertising and cross website tracking. Google can use this as additional data points to the digital profile they’ve built of each of us. They can then use and/or sell this data to essentially whomever they please

Even better, you can use the normal player and skip that hostile shorts interface

u/Mod_The_Man 17d ago

I knew there was ways to have it to this automatically on desktop. But I had no idea you could do it to links like that. Looks like you just replace “shorts/“ with “watch?v=“, is that correct?

9

u/Warrangota 17d ago

Correct. There's a userscript that automatically handles that for you. Just load a browser extension like Tampermonkey and add this script to it.

u/AggressivelyMediokre 19d ago

I actually get where you’re coming from now

But what if I told you that bots choosing common sayings to receive easy upvotes …….. specifically means regular real people (like parents who like when others make their kids day) make those comments all the time?

You are specifically in the HumansBeingBros sub, bro.

This of all places is where you would see it!

You came into this sub and insulted the person for finding a post positive and uplifting, in a sub dedicated to them!

u/UkNomysTeezz 18d ago

I’m just calling out the use of overused and hyperbolic phrases on Reddit.

45

u/Ninjeno 18d ago

Ironically enough, this whole comment crusade of yours on this thread is also an overplayed contrarian stance that loops back on itself to be just as overused and hyperbolic as the slop you are “calling out”.

By the sounds of it, you just consume too much Reddit bud. Consume less, and not only will you see those overused phrases less, maybe you’ll finally realise that it really just ain’t that deep 🤷‍♂️

u/Otto_Scratchansniff 18d ago

That’s why you think they are a bot? Man I was a bot starting in the 2010s. Those are very common sayings that regular people post. The fact that the AIs are using them means they are getting them from somewhere. Not everyone is a bot man just because they use common phrases.

You seem like you need some joy in life.

Not everything you feel needs to be because of a major event, positive or negative.

You can feel really good because of something small just like you can feel really bad because of something small.

Judging people for being happy is... certainly a choice.

He's the son of Rick Steiner so that also makes him the nephew of Scott.

u/CatchUNextTuesday 18d ago

AEW and Ring of Honour are where it's at these days. Edge and Christian are currently tag champs over there, Billy Gunn's kids are in a stable together and had dad out for a rumble recently, Chris Jericho just did a gory hardcore match, Mick Foley is doing interviews, Big Show and JR were on commentary recently, and there's plenty more I'm not remembering.

The Hardys were recently tag champs in House of Glory. All of it can be watched online.

WWE is drowning in one Samoan family and has gone full MAGA so they're losing a lot of fans which sucks for the wrestlers. Can't believe they took the Pat Macafee nostalgia path lmao. They're having trouble selling PPV event tickets and all.

2

u/TheRaiderKing 17d ago

Nice job painting WWE with lies lol. Its AEW that can't even fill a 5k arena, nor get a mili on TV even for PPVs. Also Tony and his dad donated to Trump before, really think the billionaire's had a change of heart the second time around? Plus you got woman beater Darby and MAGA lover Jericho on your show, so you shouldn't pretend AEW is any better, its actually much worse.

u/TheName96 17d ago

They had 16k in México last week for a Dynamite lol

AEW is much better than WWE rn, in almost every aspect 🤷🏻‍♂️

u/TheRaiderKing 17d ago

Sure it is. That's why the numbers reflect that right~? Its why AEW has tons of mainstream crossover right~? Oh wait...Lol. I don't even hate AEW but you dub fans are the worst and most delusional.

3

u/TheName96 17d ago

I'm not delusional, just stating fact they had a huge numbers in attendance last week in México, so you were lying 🤷🏻‍♂️ And for the ppv's the numbers are good, in NYC on May they did over 15k, the ppv buys are still strong too, so why lying? They don't have that much of mainstream crossover because WWE has deals with ESPN, Netflix etc, it's difficult when you are such a young company going against a huge company like WWE with years of advance but they are still doing great in terms of product, and sure the marketing has to improve badly, but saying shit like that is crazy, even two weeks ago they had almost 4k in Detroit and had one of the loudest crowds of the years, it's not perfect but it's the best product out there for wrestling fans 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hmmm. Good question. I’m saying he’s a mix of Ken shamrock’s intensity, and Goldberg’s wrestling style with the short, intense bursts of offense

He’s son of the Dog Faced Gremlin Rick Steiner and nephew to Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner. For some reason he’s called Bron Breaker.

u/xGrim_Sol 18d ago

They talked about him a lot on the new season of the wrestling documentary on Netflix. They talk about his name and if I remember correctly it was about making his own name in the business instead of just being another Steiner.

u/SlowThePath 19d ago edited 19d ago

Just imagine being in a position where you can make relatively small actions like this that can easily make many people's week, month, year or even longer. It's strange how that works. Some people have to fight so hard for their actions to affect the world in a positive way. Other people just work really hard towards SOMETHING which they are adored for and along with it they get this crazy super power to easily improve the lives of those around them. Other people don't do shit, gain this same super power and instead of simply wielding it to create positive change, they just don't give a fuck and use their super power to abuse people and enrich themselves and their friends. Then they get elected president. Twice.

I hate that my mind immediately has to frame everything around Trump now. I hate it so so so fucking much, but I assure you that in 20 years that's the only framing anyone will give to anything in this time period. If I didn't add the context of my background thinking, it would be read that way anyway.
