I’m gay
Jk😂
I believe that there has to be some truth to the conspiracies.
Planned obsolescence is indeed a real thing. The companies will swear up and down that it is not real
It's stupid that they think we see them as evil people laughing in cloaks like we can't just see natural greed.
@@IAmMightyMike I read way too much fantasy, and even I think it doesn't work that way. Firstly, cloaks are only for cool people, and second, being an asshole takes less effort than fancy meeting rooms
PLANNED OBSELESENCE actually is a very real thing. This video even states its because of aging batteries.
How is it that we used to be able to change the battery in all of our phones... but now, the manufacturers have removed that capability?? They did this to prevent users from replacing the aged batteries. If that isn't planned obselesence, I don't know what is!
Besides that, there's the fact that manufacturers refuse to support their own outdated softwares which allow the phones to function.
Ever since Snowden , conspiracy theories don't seem like such far fetched ideas anymore
It's become quite the double edged sword tbh
If there are any other conspiracy theories out there that you can find, hope for an eventual part 2 please
Planned obsolescence is a well-known issue in the tech industry. When a battery dies, it renders a product useless. Similarly, if the software is too advanced, it can make a product obsolete. However, it doesn't have to be this way. Technology companies could make a simple change to address this problem.
Instead of completely abandoning outdated products, companies could provide options for users. For instance, they could inform users when their product is no longer supported by the current operating system, but offer the ability to roll back to a previous OS version. Additionally, they could disable and remove the battery, replacing it with a switch that allows the product to be used as an always-on unit.
This approach would give users the opportunity to repurpose their devices for various applications such as security cameras, picture frames, landline phones, home automation devices, media screens, or even microcomputers. By doing so, technology companies would reduce waste and provide a more sustainable solution for their customers.
It's important to encourage companies to adopt such practices, promoting a longer lifespan for electronic devices and minimizing electronic waste.
so important, and well said!
It is true. I have been working for a company, that specialises in brand protection. 99% of my work was looking through auction sites to fish out off-brand illegal copies of car parts (mostly rims) for a certain popular car company. Ok, that makes sense, copyright, brand protections, etc. At some point I was offered additional work to look out for a certain computer soft- and hardware company. I would have to send cease and desist emails to users of said company's printers. What was so illegal they did? They were installing original firmware on that printers. And why would they do that? Because the printers' software had built-in mandatory software update after 18 or so months after first use. That would render most ink cartridges unrecognisable and thus printer unusable. It also included original ink cartridges. In essence, I would be harassing people, who just wanted their printers to work again. I declined that position, but it taught me well, how certain companies operate.
@@Shinobito1 what print was that if you can so we all can not buy it.. and i do know the print obsolescence trick
@@marcus_cole_2 You can bet they all do it, but from my experience, I'm guessing Canon. Cheap printers, expensive ink (that dries out the heads often) rubbish software (that's optional, at least)
@@marcus_cole_2 I prefer not to say, but even without me saying the name I have no evidence, that other companies don't do the same
That Apple conspiracy is on point. And I swear, Verizon did/probably still does that.
I shed a tear everytime you guys do these kinda videos…in loving these forever
Wow... Missed Apple paying $113 million dollar settlement for purposefully slowing down iPhones because the battery was old, not because the battery could not handle the performance of the latest iOS. Apple even said they did that and patched it.
I know right! I'm starting to enjoy these videos far less lately, simply because of the misinformation due to increasing political bias.
They literally mentioned that old phones slow down because the old batteries can't hold up to the new software.
@joesweet4973 That's not how phones nor any electronics work. They don't naturally slow down because the battery can't keep up, the battery just loses capacity until it or the device stops working while the phone would run the same; unless it is overheating, or in the example with Apple the software was specifically coded to purposely slow down the phone.
"Tim Horton's coffee is good that you'd think there were drugs in it!"
You mean a drug like caffeine? Lol. Yep, that checks out.
Or the cocaine in Coca-Cola
🤫🤫 you're not supposed to think about that one
@Antonio Anchondo Well actually in the older times that's actually true. They did put Cocaine in Coca-Cola
Exactly. I’m a true gourmand but no one gives me grief about eating too much because I’m thin. I’ll admit there have been many instances where I’ve drank too much. It’s been well over a year since one of those nights. However there are also plenty of days I don’t imbibe at all. I certainly don’t need to drink to get through my day. I have a few friends & family members who scold me about alcohol but literally can’t function without caffeine. I’m talking migraines, tremors, nausea, etc. They’re experiencing withdrawal just like an alcoholic or hardcore drug addict would.
Sorry but Facebook is a big lier. They absolutely listen in on our conversations, I was talking about wanting KFC one time and 3 ads for KFC buckets deals appeared on my timeline, this was a year ago. And it's happened various other times before so I deleted my account.
Still happens. But I'm sure a lot is tied to your phone in general rather than just facebook.
Facebook is the Gestapo for the left.
i think the facebook one is true! i've shopped at stores and even just talked about it and soon i'm seeing ads for those stores on my feed. how did they know? i didn't shop online or anything where they could track me
I never knew there were so many conspiracies in corporations. Now I do
“I’m toppling you two like plain baked potatoes, exploiting you both like you were growing my tomatoes! Oh, King you’re creepy plus you’re not second fiddle, you’re breakfast croissants are even worse than his McGriddles, and McDonalds gave you a job a box with a face, left you behind like a quiet kid in a PlayPlace!” Wendy
🔥🔥🔥😎 pure poetry right there
👉👈
“I’m the fast food queen, mean with a tweet sesh.
Leaving opponents frozen cause I always keep my beef fresh!!”
"King your creepy and your always second fiddle" "and McDonald's gave your job to a box with a face" js
The actual quote about new coke is "we're not that dumb, and we're not that smart", referring to theories that they had either completely misread demand or made it bad. In fact, New Coke tested well with those who had actually tried it, the backlash was from people who were utterly horrified at them changing the icon.
They did the same thing with Shapes back in Australia, new version was shithouse and bringing back the "classic" flavours was a god send hahaha
Most people probably don't read the terms of services. "We're not that smart." Pretty sure Coke has recently rebranded the drinks with "healthy ingredients." They're playing the public .
Before the New Coke brand was produced, Coca-Cola did blind taste tests comparing the new Coke formula with the longtime old Coke. People did not know what they were tasting. The results: 75 percent preferred the _New Coke_ to their longtime soft drink.
However, when the company made a big deal of the change, it didn't taste as good. When people knew it was a change, the psychology of the change wrecked the new product.
Can we be sure of this? Well a year after the New Coke was ended, the company repeated the same blind taste tests: New Coke vs. old Coke, and the New Coke _again_ won 75 percent to 25. It's overwhelmingly in our minds, not our taste buds.
I'm sorry, planned obsolescence is true. Apple admitted it.
You owe them no apology. They owe you one.
@@BlackHatCinephile the problem is that they told people and no matter what there's still gonna be a line waiting for the next iphone. Their market is so liberal that won't touch their sales. Unlike conservatives and bud light boycotts.
@@kadenwolf5798 My tracfone has a camera, internet, text, news, basically everything the expensive phones have, it's 3 or 4 years old, and just as good as the day I bought it.
That Apple has outright copped to the battery throttling issue means the claims against them were not a conspiracy theory. The situation may fall short of "planned obsolescence", but they absolutely design a product that will not stand the test of time predicated on their design, not customer use or care.
They do listen. I was talking about tools one evening. I suddenly start getting advertisements for tools. More specifically, the tool I was needing. Not pure Evil. Just creepy
To test that theory, sit next to your friends phone, and when he leaves the room say "I want a purple dildo" as many times as you can. It works!
New Coke was around long enough for the fold Coke ormula to be changed from cane sugar to high fructose corn syrup. It worked, but Classic Coke does not have the bite the original had and is sweeter.
That houseguest snippet...clapping at your awesome job with that!
These conspiracy videos are the best
Fast food still and always will be delicious, no matter how many conspiracy theories are against them.
I love that there slogan was coke is it
The rumour that McDonalds was funding the Provisional IRA is quite topical for me right now. I have been marking university students' assignments, and in their reference lists some students are citing the acronyms of organisational authors, rather than providing the full title of the organisations. I have been advising the students to provide the full title the first time (or only time) they cite such a source in their reference list, and only use the acronym for subsequent citations, in order to avoid confusing (for example) the Alcohol & Drug Foundation with the Australian Defence Forces, or the Certified Practising Accountants with the Communist Party of Australia. I think in future I'll use the McDonalds IRA furphy as a cautionary tale when advising students how to reference.
Oh, this channel still exists. Good to see
I can’t remember what the one is where this journalist found a lot of information and made every news agency aware of it. But just as she was supposed to deliver it she winds up murdered and the whole thing quickly brushed under the rug.
Interesting 👌
Absolute BS that Facebook doesn't listen. I had a conversation with my wife about hiring a Bobcat to clear out a section of my yard yesterday and have been getting ads for bobcat hire ever since.
TOP 10 Underated Cartoons
If the conspiracy is against McDonald's, I'm believing it
The McDonald's one reminded me of Archer when Cyril was talking about his IRA and Cheryl though he was talking about an Irish mob. Cyril didn't help matters by not explaining to her what an IRA is as it doesn't seem like the type of thing she would know about.
Planned Obsolescence was invented by the light bulb company in early 1900s. It is how everything is made. However, it applies to more than just crappy software and batteries but also the buttons, conections, the board, processors, touch sensor, charging port, microphone, speakers, ect...
Exactly it’s not relativity new phenomenon, it’s been nocking around since the 1900s but was around 1929 when it became a mainstay business practice thanks to a certain American car manufacturer.
Oh and have course it had to be General Motors, a car company known for making poor quality vehicles.
Nokia Flip Phones and Nokia 8210’s last longer than I-Phones. How do you explain that then?
My understanding of the Tim Horton's coffee situation:
When Wendy's bought out Tim Horton's in Canada, Tim Horton's built their own roasting facility. McDonald's was looking to conquer Tim Horton's edge on breakfast drive-thrus, and changed their McDonald's coffee in Canada using Mother Parker's, who used to supply Tim Horton's. The fact that McDonald's also had larger serving sizes forced Tim Horton's to change theirs. McDonald's now has a much stronger presence in Canada for their coffee and breakfast business than they did prior to the Wendy's purchase of Tim Hortons. Now, is that fact, or fiction? BTW: Tim's coffee isn't that great. People are just sheep, and Canada lacks Dunkin' and Krispy Kreeme.
Tim Horton's created a monopoly for itself in the donut market and now sells just about everything but! There used to be a lot of selection for donuts, not anymore. They need to bring back those TimBiebs lol.
Tim Horton's coffee is a bitter roast. Therefore, you need more sugar to make it tasty. And sugar is addictive. Add another addictive component (caffeine), excellent marketing and a virtual monopoly in the Canadian fast food beverage market and you've got your answer. There's really nothing special about it.
@Netties Kid American beer tastes like reindeer piss lol.
Tim Hortons secret is they use heavy cream instead of half and half. You're welcome.
Sounds like they bought out WatchMojo
Great now I have new theories to think about lol
REALLY, UA-cam? FOUR commercials in a 12-minute video? JFC
Hey everyone and I have watched multiple conspiracy theories videos.
Now I know why there are people that don't use Facebook, or that they had and quit the social media platform. They don't want their private photos be owned or getting evesdrop by some organization
Luckily the only thing damaging McDonald's image today, is their prices have gone up while quality has gone down. No longer cheap enough to call it fast food.
Chicken?!?!? When are they going to hold the oil companies responsible for price manipulation?... oil companies post record profits with a record low number of refineries but they're not price fixing...? If you believe that I've got a bridge for sale...
"There are corporate disasters, and then there's New Coke" to which Target said "Hold the Bud Light I just bought.
Whoever came up with that Walmart one needs to go to a hospital.
Wow, pandering to corporations. Imagine that
That's just a THEORY a CORPORATE THEORY.
THANKS FOR WATCHING.
Tim Hortons is the Starbucks of Canada.
I joke that my favorite Japanese restaurant puts crack in their miso soup to keep people coming back. It's an old joke, and I don't think anyone takes it seriously.
Glad I watched this I was stationed in Kansas for 80% of the time for the chicken. So I filed for my settlement.
Ok then how come when I THINK OF SOMETHING there is an ADD FOR IT?

Speaking as a Canadian citizen and who lives in Canada Tim Horton’s has the best coffee especially a double double ( 2 cream 2 sugar )
Try McDonald's one day....😏
Apple just found a loophole with wording they still force you to get new phones
5:20...Why does this CNN reporter look like something straight out of Grand Theft Auto?
What is the background music?
planned obsolescence is much simpler. all you do is make a device that can run the current software, and then release software that includes a command that won't run on the original device. build a new device for that software, and then make new software. or if you're a software-only company, just make your new applications so they won't run on your old operating system.
note that planned obsolescence has now been replaced by requiring people to rent their application software instead of being able to buy it.
I was too young to remember new Coke
No wonder we don't trust some of these companies
Ummmm....considering Apple lost a lawsuit specifically for doing that.....makes y'all look like corporate shills. Lol
The Oxycodone merch aged horrible lol
Surprised conspiracy theory that Kentucky Fried Chicken legally had to change name to KFC because they stopped using chicken and instead used mutant hybrid bird isn't on list.
What about the head of Disney's founder inside a cryogenic freezer?
You have to remember that all of social media are Private Platforms

Newcoke would have been better if they do a Michael Jackson commercial
No, apple l definitely does that. You cant find the specs or parts for their prosucts bow. Even tried to get it illegal to fix your own phone.
Definitely, you can change batteries or displays on all other phones.
This video is wrong on many things.
Missed the total boat on planned obsolescence. From the very beginning the have been willfully slow on tech upgrades, as well as overall performance ie battery, ui, and all the general functions. PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE 100% REAL!
Nothing from Disney?
I Don’t Believe The McDonalds One As I Like The McNuggets
Are we really gonna sit here and like Facebook and Google arent listening to us even though we don't want them to.
no way people think Tim hortons coffee is that good ☠️
I don't even know who he is , everything in mc donalds is trash , the only bomb things they have is their sprite and dr pepper.
Tim Horton was a hockey player who after retiring, opened up a donut shop. He was much better at making donuts than playing hockey. 😁
New Coke? ... Try Bud Light
Ok transphobe. Bud Light is doing a great thing by supporting the LGBTQ community and it's suddenly getting boycotted OVER...NOTHING.
Well that's true
This video itself is a conspiracy
Where does all this money go? People are still missing put cause the attorneys get paid first and People will get what $13 a piece? I don't understand
Oxycoton is not addictive. I use it every day, 10 tablets and I'm fine.

4:05 is impossible because second amendment.
So here’s the thing I will mention random things just randomly around my phone in conversation with someone else in my phone is the only thing round and then that random specific thing that is so random and specific would never pop up pops up on my Facebook feed. Do at this point can we really trust Facebook? I mean they let scammer go all the time using the rocks photos and stop saying this does not violate our privacy or policies or whatever. At this point Facebook is definitely listening to our conversations, and they’re not gonna admit to it if it’s like the child if you are guilty of something and you’re like oh yeah, I definitely doing this bad thing that the consequences would come and so swiftly there be no plausible deniability. Rule one of the scammer or a shady persons deny deny deny gaslight those are all typical tactics and yeah, Facebook is most definitely listening such as Facebook in Google to do as UA-cam as well.
Were you guys paid to act like some of this stuff doesnt happen? Apple LITERALLY paid a fine for deliberately slowing down old phones
That Walmart thing, not too far off. Where were those kids from illegal immigrants held?
Forced obsteletescence(however you spell it. Never heard of or used this word), is a real thing. I have a tablet that shut down after just a year of using it. Also, the warranty said it was good for a year(that was my mistake for going cheap, I'll confess!). I would type in the password to get in and the thing shuts down.
Older cell phones slow down because they're older and technology simply slows them down? Are you serious? Good God--keep drinking the Kool-Aid
