As an American I am not familiar with British brands. Today I am very interested in learning about the most popular British brands and curious to see if I recognize any. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
Tyler lives in a sensory deprivation capsule on Planet Zog. He is aware of very little. 🤣
😂😂😂😂 👍❤ luv him
he is aware of it all, he's a fantastic actor playing you all as a typical dumb american stereotype, he's cashing in on your naiveness .... trust me you only have to know which college he went to
@@paulmilner8452 So which college did he go to?
@@paulmilner8452 We all know it's an act. Don't spoil the illusion.
@@paulmilner8452 even if he is a Harvard professor does not take away from the fact he is racist and ignorant.
Dr Martens were founded in 1945, long before "fashion" was invented. I was wearing them in the 60's.
Haha I was just about to say that😂 alot more expensive now tho
@@joanneswift2672 I have 6 hole Dr Martens now they cost me around £170.
Skinheads in the late sixties early seventies wore them
It would help if Tyler Rumpole actually listened to his own videos. Formed in 2011, i must have had a time machine!
Exactly but why is WatchMojo always so wrong?
"The world's biggest brand of whisky is from Scotland???" Said with surprise.
PEOPLE THE WORLD OVER CALL IT SCOTCH!!! The drink has literally passed into the lexicon to be named after the country that invented it and makes (arguably) the best. I'm English and I'm offended on behalf of Scots. 😅
I'll join you!
Whiskey is Irish scotch is Scottish is how I think of it
Whiskey is Irish and American. Whisky is Scottish. @@WookieWarriorz
I only watch Tyler occasionally. I was subscribed but I find him hard work and don't enjoy watching his reactions. A shame really because he seems to be a nice guy.
@@markwolstenholme3354Same. If he took the time out to read the comments he might learn more. Then again, who on earth doesn't know that Rolls Royce is British? Hard to comprehend his surprise at nearly everything he encounters.
"I feel like it's just me." At long last Tyler recognises that he might not be such a "typical, average American" after all...
I dunno... I thought he was proving the point quite well 🤣🤣🤣
@ianwalker5842 Au cointreau, he is a typical, average American. Even when he has watched numerous clips about basic stuff about the goings on in the World outside of USA, he still remains absolutely ignorant. Regards from Halifax, UK.
@@stevepage5813
Fromage frais!!! Do I detect a 'Delboyism' per chance... LOL 😂😂😂
And we love it
@@stevepage5813 hahaha halifax is a shithole, and that's coming from a wakie lad
Hate to break this to you but American did not invent whisky. It was invented and popularised by the Scottish.
Tyler not listening again. Doc Martins have been around for decades (after all punk was the 1970s). 2011 they added a clothing range. Tyler should put on the subtitles and read them.
im not suprised he is halflistening like often it seems when doing something like this
He forgets stuff too.
In plenty of his vids,a fact is stated again but in his mind,he’s never heard it before.
But bless him,maybe a bit of research would help.
@MrGrahawk He doesn't listen or learn anything from these clips. I really don't think he has the sense to bother reading any of the comments which might educate him. Best regards from Halifax, UK.
Attention deficient
TYLER PLEASE LISTEN!
Durex does sell quite a lot in America but they had to make them smaller than British ones for the US market
😂
Beauty burn dude..😂
🤣🤣🤣As for their Trojan ones. Reckon it is wishful thinking on their behalf🤣
I've got a screwdriver set labelled as Durex. Did they used to make tools?
LOL 😂
Doc Martens founded 1947
Yea, Tyler is often so focussed on what he is next to say, that he misses bits of the commentary. I think, having driven across Indiana several times, the environment is quite boring and that results in Hoosiers missing things easily. 😂
Richard Branston started when he was a student by selling records in England that was hard to get so he would import the USA and other countries
@rossalexander5128 ... Yes, but the company that makes them started in 1901.
@@alanwoodings7519 Branston or Branson?
Don't worry Tyler, you will have forgotten all of this by tomorrow!

I love that you thought he would read this, it makes it even funnier
You Didn't know Rolls Royce was British? - God help us all
One of the most quintessentially British Icons
Shock news flash - the union jack is is a British flag
Love it! But remember, it can only be called a 'Union Jack' when flown from a ship ... on land it must be referred to as the 'Union Flag'. Apologies for being so pedantic! ..... the devil is in the detail, nonetheless. LOL

@@duncanalmond7880yet another person with this nonsense. Absolutely not true. It can be called a Union Jack wherever it is. Parliament passed a decree in 1908 stating so.
There is no point in trying to tell Tyler anything of historical value because he doesn’t read his own comments, others maybe! Next week he will be doing a video about kettles again because he has already forgotten!
I assumed UA-camrs created their channels to partially 'interact' with their subscribers' comments (as in at least reading/liking/commenting on a handful of the comments) - especially when they ask their subscribers for more info? Weird.
Don't be unkind!
@@marieparker3822 How am I being unkind? I thought that was the point of YT Channels. Even newspapers have comments/replies. Anyhoo, I still subscribe to his channel & watch his videos, regardless.
Absolutely true
@@Sachik30Tyler has clearly just created one because reaction channels are huge just now and he wanted to make a quick buck off all of us without actually interacting with us once. His channel barely grows at all and this is why.
Why don't you just listen . If you are the average American as you claim then God help your country
Watch the original video, this is a reaction channel and if you want it to be authentic this it it
@@nasheeds8218well most reactors don’t keep pausing and they talk at the end of the! And they do that cause they don’t hear everything and get things wrong just like him lol
@sharonlock6452 Exactly. Regards from Halifax, UK.

I'm surprised at some of these choices, but not every UK brand can be listed. Those I might have listed would be: BP, Unilever, Land Rover, HSBC, and after Covid, AstraZeneca. Btw, Tyler, there are 84 million US subscribers to BBC America. You need to get out more. 😅❤
HSBC - Hong Kong & Shanghai took over the Midland Bank in 1992, all hail leader Xi!
@@etherealbolweevil6268 HSBC is headquartered in London. It's three largest share owners are based in Texas and New York. Only HSBC (China) has shares owned by the Chinese government. This division of HSBC represents under seven percent of the group's holdings. So Xi controls at most three percent of HSBC's business.
HSBC was founded as a British trade bank (like Standard Chartered, to facilitate international trade) in the 19th century. It has always (apart from a brief period due to WW2) had its main headquarters in London with other headquarters in Hong Kong and Shanghai. It bought Midland Bank to allow it to comply with changes in banking licensing laws in the UK (which required it to have retail/personal banking services to continue offering the much more lucrative private banking services). Trade bank services are still their bread and butter, and they’re one of the largest trade banks in the world (which is another reason they stay in London, as over 60% of international trade contracts are under English and Welsh jurisdiction for complex historical reasons)
Land Rover is German now.
Cadbury in USA is made by Hershey, therefore it doesn't taste the same
There's also different laws in different places. Europeans think their Cadbury taste better because it has more Coco solids

Tyler lives under a rock! I'm a yank and the only one I hadn't heard of was ASOS... then again I'm old.
@jezd8159 - I’m Scottish, living in Edinburgh, and I have the same excuse for never having been aware of ASOS - age!
Same, I was like, ASOS wtf is that but then I'm no longer a 20's fashion follower lol.
I have never heard of it and I'm English!
Many people, like me, wore Doc Martens in America in the 70's. The narrator said that the company also launched a clothing range in 2011. How did you not understand that?
Glenfiddich is described as malted because it is made of malted barley which is the case of all good whiskey(or whisky), not like popular American whiskeys which also use rice, wheat, rye, and corn. Scotland also produces such a product known as grain whiskey.
he's too busy wise-cracking BS
How can he not have heard of Burberry, the Royal Navy used to issue Burberry raincoats long before it became trendy, I was wearing Burberry in the 70’s
Thank you sir 👏🏻👏🏻
If it is "fascinating" to him, why doesn't he listen to what they're saying? 😑
He is really starting to grate on me, he never listens to what he watches.
AND never reads the comments - so will never learn here! 😂
he thinks richard branson invented pickle
It's Tyler who is in a great pickle !!
I need to say reading the comments section is by far the most entertaing thing about these posts
Glenfiddich distillery is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky.
It makes US whisky look like acid
Fun fact, Rolls Royce makes more missiles than cars
I actually forgot they made cars until he mentioned it. I encounter the name in terms of aircraft engines more often.
Yes but missiles tend to be a use once item, if it doesn't "go off" you tend not to retrieve it and try again.
I'd assume they make anything with an engine. Take the world by storm and take on Dyson hoovers I say
@@smithy2365 I have a similar dislike (hatred) of Dyson, "world by storm", a fantastic song by The Three Johns 👍
Well, Rolls Royce cars are part of BMW now, Rolls Royce defence and aerospace is still UK owned.
This video was not your finest moment
Scotch whisky is famous and revered around the world with many famous single malt whiskies from Glenfiddich to Glenmorangie, Speyside, Macallan and many more.
I am Australian, a non-drinker, and even I know about Glenfiddich being the one of the best. 😊
@@nolajoy7759It's not 1 of the best, just one of the biggest (although this is if course subjective).
Glenfiddichs distillery is like an industrial factory.
Some Whisky's are older than the United States!
@@nolajoy7759 Tyler isn't very worldly, by his own admission. He needs to get out more and out of America more and hopefully he will be able to do so and broaden his horizons. Love from 🇬🇧 to 🇦🇺
@@gdok6088 As he states quite proudly each time, he regards himself as a typical, average American. Sums him up really don't you think? Regards from Halifax, UK.
I genuinely think Tyler lives under a rock sometimes
As do most Americans.
@@sallysloman1742 They do, but a money making rock!
The boots have been on sale for decades, you should have listened to what they said at the beginning when they talked about the boots. its the clothing side of the business that is new.
Rowan Atkinson drives a Rolls Royce , while Mr Bean drives a Mini !!!
@DavidSimmons-kt4rc Don't confuse him/them any more than they already are. Even when Tyler and a lot of the North Americans watch correct clips about anything, they still don't have a clue what's going on in the world, either actually in USA, or anywhere in the rest of the World.
Atkinson is a huge car fanatic. He's featured on Top Gear a couple of times over the years.
And meanwhile both brands belong to German carmaker BMW 😂
Both german cars.
When he says "I could be wrong", I tend to substitute the words "could be". 😁
😂😂 he’s really hamming up the “clueless American” trope. There’s absolutely no way on gods earth that he hasn’t heard of Dr Martens. At this point they’re ubiquitous
I personally have more understanding as to why he may never have heard of Doc Martens than I do of how baffled he was at the concept of Scottish Whisky.
The only reason that Trojan outsells Durex in the USA is because the Trojan product is smaller.
Strangely I heard that Durex sells most in Texas... Because everything's bigger in Texas...
Ba-da-bum-ching! 😂😂😂
@@stewedfishproductions9554 ...or they are the biggest dicks there
Dr. Martens have been around for decades, it was tin 2011 when they branched out into clothing. It actually said that in the video! :)
You don’t actually expect him to listen do you?
I cannot believe that you have never heard of Scotch whiskey?!
Whisky, without the "e" (and often called "Scotch") is from Scotland.
Whiskey is from everywhere else.
There is NO SUCH THING as Scotch WhiskEy !
@@brentwoodbay Thank you, spellcheck.
WHISKY !!
@@charleshedley4381 not quite. New Zealand whisky is also whisky - our companies were founded by Scots. Same with Australia.
Why does he dismiss/discount anything "not popular in America"? Like that's the standard to live up to? 😅
@nolajoy7759 Exactly. USA folk seem to think that Murica is the only place in the World. I read a while ago that the whole of USA only represents about five percent of the World population. It's not their fault however, as it is forced down their necks from an early age that USA is the biggest and best country in the World. A lot of the US reacters that I watch on here are beginning to realise pretty damn sharply that they have been lied to, to say the very least. Regards from Halifax, UK.
The BBC.... "it does even, like, TV shows?" I think this guy really is what he seems to be.....thick.
I live in Dufftown! It is only a small town, but it is the whisky capital with 7 distilleries and Glenfiddich is the largest. It is beautiful, surrounded by stunning scenery and is a wonderful place to live.
Homer Simpson would love to move to Dufftown... 😂
Tyler you live in your little American bubble
Doc Martens were LONG before this century even began.
Research,research,research.
Whilst watching another American video, the presenter was waxing lyrical about fourteenth century carvings. He suggested the stone masons drew the designs in pencil....the fact that pencils had not been invented was probably not on his Google phone 'research'!
You really need to listen more instead of making up your own story. The joys of adhd😂
Here's a new one for Tyler - the British Isles are British.
Mind blown.
Why do you think Scotch is called "Scotch"? It comes from Scotland.
Dr Martens are super famous in America too. Probably the most famous boots worldwide.
You are hilariously clueless at times.
❤
Tyler literally knows about anything at all whatsoever...not only has he been living under a rock but a complete quarry of rock covered over by more rocks
Still got my docs from 1978
Remember that when people talk about drilling for gas - they mean 'gas' - they don't mean the derivative of oil which you call 'gas' and everyone else calls petrol (petroleum).
Sometimes you are unbelievably daft.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I must be a time traveller cos I was wearing doc martens in the 90s 😂
Well I was wearing them in the late 60s and early 70s.
BBC is not just the news. Imagine watching a drama or a movie on TV that's not interrupted by ANY adverts!!! That's the BBC.
Cadbury’s is not British anymore. Owned by kcraft an American company, which has ruined the chocolate.
Eh hardly, at least our version is still way better than the American version of Cadbury
😂triggered the fook out of me, thought you said refined , or that's what my eyes saw, was gonna call you childish names, but no, you clearly said ruined 😂👍
Yep, the chocolate is very disappointing now.
It isn't even square shaped now
I have several American friends,some from NY,some from Cali,and two in Seattle (we are all telecoms engineers) and every one of them watches BBC America,some ONLY watch BBCA!

My friend met this American woman and the yank asked where she lived and the English woman said Cornwall and at the weekend she goes to the beach. The yank goes ' what do you mean the beach'. She thought that only America had beaches ! Seriously.
Royal Dutch Shell was formed as a merger between a British and a Dutch company and was shared between the two countries, it was commonly known as just Shell though. In 2022 the company merged its shares, moved its HQ to London and changed its name to just Shell. So the video is a bit out of date.
BBC America is a basic cable channel so I’d imagine many Americans do know about it.
OMG Tyler get your ears cleaned out and how do you not know about Scottish single malt. DM's are world wide. Hahaha BBC has to increase it advertising, oh dear you missed the point, NO ADS.
@gabbymcclymont3563 Yes. FFS Tyler, WAKE UP. Regards from Halifax, UK.
Tyler is like a lot of Americans I observe. They tend not to be aware of anything not made in USA or fashionable. 😅
I used to work at Shell, the V-Power is a 99 octane E5 unleaded petrol that has cleaning additives to clean your fuel injectors and anti-friction additives to reduce engine wear
Just the thumbnail makes me bang my head on the wall .. how can anyone not know that Rolls Royce is British brand ? ... Next he shows footage of punks in the 70's and deduces that Doc Martens (founded 1945) were made since 2011 and are a recent brand . I think Tyler grew up living under a rock 😂
He's still under there.
Still living under a rock. Mind u im beginning to think this is all an act to get people piling in on the comments
I’m British and I’ve never heard of ASOS.
Im Polish and i worked many years for ASOS in London.Located in Hampstead Rd. NW1
A British whisky brand he said surprisingly?!? Does he think there is only one. There are over 140 different distilleries in Scotland.
Doc Martens have been around for decades, they were very popular with the ‘skinheads’ when I was at school in the 70s.
Durex was Irish it was taken from the bowel of the sheep but it was the English that refined it by taking it out of the sheep before using it.
Lol
So your supposed to take it out ? Now you tell me 😊
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Best burn EVER!

If you see Cadburys make sure it isn't the Hersheys version.
Cadburys has proved to be very popular with Americans who have been sent some or, found it in stores like "Trader Joe's"
They went tae the us supreme court tae ban uk cadburys being sold in the us
@@simonmilne8208 Yes otherwise Hersheys would quickly go into liquid chocolate (liquidation) lol
American cadbury is made under license by Hersey the vomit chocolate maker so it doesnt taste the same as UK cadbury
You seriously did not know that Rolls Royce was British?
The Hershey Company acquired the license to manufacture and market CADBURY products in the US in 1988. But it is not as good as Birmingham CADBURY in the UK.
@PeterDay81 Well if the USA cocks things up like everything else they do with most of their food, what do you expect? If you put some sort of acid in your chocolate that makes it taste of VOMIT, it's not going to go down too well in the rest of the World outside of Murica. Regards from Halifax, UK.
Watchmojo get it wrong again, Doctor Marten's have been around for decades, got my first pair back in 1980. And US Cadbury is not really Cadbury, it's licensed by Hershey's in the US and they use the US recipes.
@martinsear5470 Yes, Watchmojo is nearly always wrong. This really isn't helping ignorant people who are confused enough. Regards from Halifax, UK.

Scotland the home of whisky. He sounds surprised that whisky is made there. LOL!
There is now 2 different Rolls Royce companies. they were once the same company but split with the car company being sold off to BMW and although owned by the German company the cars are still made in the UK.
The other Rolls Royce company is a aerospace and defence company which plane / jet engines are very popular.
You need to review Britain in the 60s and when we became the fashion country of the World along with our pop music
Dr Martens have been popular for many years, I was wearing them in the late 60s and early 70s. We called them Bovver boots.
Don't buy Cadbury chocolate in the US because it's made by Herschey. We cannot export to the US as Herschey 'persuaded' the government to put an import ban on all chocolate imports. BBC America is a subscription channel, so you would have to purchase it in your TV package.
Not surprised -the US version of Cadbury is VILE so UK Cadbury would put Hershey out of business in a flash!
I used to call them Doc Martens. Did anyone else? It was just easier to say. I looked online & the company was founded in 1947. The guy who founded them wasn't happy with his current boots as they were hurting, so he invented his own.
So frustrating to listen to Tyler not listen properly,
They forgot one sports car brand McLaren
Whisky can only be produced in Scotland, Whiskey can be from anywhere and have to use the E in the spelling.
Durex borrowed a sign off the rear of Wall's ice cream vans in the 50's/60's, 'Stop me and buy one' became 'Buy me and stop one' on their posters in barber shops until banned.
Burberry and other luxury brands do little advertising as rely on word of mouth amongst well heeled clients.
Rolls Royce also make Aero and Marine engines although that is now a separate company. The car company now owned by FoMoCo.
How could anyone not know a roller is British that's an eye opener
I'm surprised Tyler has never heard of Glenfiddich whiskey. I live in a rural area of Thailand and if you go into the local 7-11, which are only small convenience stores, they sell Glenfiddich.
The BBC is not about News only - its programmes are famous and sold worldwide including to a lot of programmes to US TV networks
The shoe brand is 'Doctor Martens' or 'Doc Martens' - never said without the 'doctor' part. And are not a new brand at all!
BBC America in 2023 was ranked as the 70th most watched network (both broadcast and cable) out of 159, averaging 190,000 viewers a day. So not huge, but significant.
American Cadbury's is not the same as British Cadbury's. The recipe they use is closer to the Hershey's recipe than the original British recipe.
These videos are always fun to watch. Someone who doesn't know anything about anything tells the world about, keep up the good work.
BBC America has been around for years. If I had to guess, I'd say about 20 years or so. Maybe yourcable company doesn't offer it in your area
You haven’t heard of Scotch whisky? I think they invented it…
He says he’s heard of RR and Shell, then two minutes later forgets that statement and says the BBC is the only one he’s heard of. Thick or what !!
Virgin started off as a record company!
Hi Tyler... Firstly I love you... But secondly I can not believe how little you know about most of these things... It's amazing to hear your not familiar with most of these massive brands... I need to get you out of America and expand your ... Expand everything if you don't mind me saying lol... Love the channel ❤
You haven't heard of DMs? 😮 They are the brand of alternative fashion. Punk rock everything!
I don't think they really had punk in America, too outside the box
I would expect Trojan to be more popular in the USA considering they do smaller sizes......😂😂😂
Cadbury America is made under licence by Hershey's and does not taste the same as UK Cadbury's. Missed out Bentley cars
Rolls Royce - "This is British??? Nah, mate - not even going there. "This is British" - FFS.
How on earth can you not know Rolls Royce is a British brand. 😂
Source wikipedia:
Shell was formed in April 1907 through the merger of Royal Dutch Petroleum Company of the Netherlands and The "Shell" Transport and Trading Company of the United Kingdom. The combined company rapidly became the leading competitor of the American Standard Oil and by 1920 Shell was the largest producer of oil in the world.[7] Shell first entered the chemicals industry in 1929. Shell was one of the "Seven Sisters" which dominated the global petroleum industry from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s. In 1964, Shell was a partner in the world's first commercial sea transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG).[8] In 1970, Shell acquired the mining company Billiton, which it subsequently sold in 1994 and now forms part of BHP. In recent decades gas has become an increasingly important part of Shell's business[9] and Shell acquired BG Group in 2016.
The Doc Martens boots were worn by singer Paul King of the pop group King in their 1984's video for the song Pride.
Rolls Royce don't only make cars but they also produce airplane engines
Source wikipedia:
Rolls-Royce Limited was a British luxury car and later an aero-engine manufacturing business established in 1904 in Manchester by the partnership of Charles Rolls and Henry Royce. Building on Royce's good reputation established with his cranes, they quickly developed a reputation for superior engineering by manufacturing the "best car in the world". The business was incorporated as "Rolls-Royce Limited" in 1906, and a new factory in Derby was opened in 1908. The First World War brought the company into manufacturing aero-engines. Joint development of jet engines began in 1940, and they entered production in 1944.[1] Rolls-Royce has since built an enduring reputation for the development and manufacturing of engines for military and commercial aircraft.
Never quote Wikipedia as a source. Very biased and inaccurate
I am convinced having watched a number of his vids that Tyler puts on his dumb persona. He also must listen to his vids on mute. I think this is done to enrage his viewers into filling the comments section to improve the algorithms for his channel.
I think you got it. No one can be this aw-shucks dumb.
@dickyampy That got me thinking. Thing is I doubt he is clever enough to try such a cunning plan. I stand to be corrected though, because he certainly is enraging me. Most of the US reacters that I have been watching for a couple of years, are actually learning a heck of a lot about not only the UK etc.... but the World outside of Murica in general. Regards from Halifax, UK.
I totally agree with you.
We are being taken for a ride!
Whisky originated in Scotland, so it makes the best. Rolls Royce also make the best jet aircraft engines, for military & commercial purposes.
The BBC does far more than news. You will have seen BBC programmes. Durex has become the generic name for condoms, even when not made by that company.
Virgin began by Branson selling music albums at university, then opened record shops, later moving into radio, transport systems.
Here in the UK and in Spain we also use “Rolls Royce” to describe the crem de la crem of production, the absolute perfection that can be attained. Check out the factory that builds Rolls Royce’s!! It’s more like a laboratory than a factory ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve worked at London Rubber, the manufacturer of Durex and Marigold.
When I started work there I did the staff induction tour where we saw how the contraceptives were manufactured and tested.
@johnsimmons5951 Did you test all the condoms personally? lol. Regards from Halifax, UK.
@@stevepage5813 that would be a job some would like! Though I don’t know who would want to use one that had already been used.
Durex is made twice the using size, and everyone is tested electronically, by being put on an electrical probe that is 4 times using size and a high tension electrical current applied when it is in a bath , if a current flows the contraceptive is rejected, if too many fail the whole batch is destroyed.
Then a sample is taken, the contraceptive is filled with as measured amount of water and the contraceptive is rolled over a tissue paper, if the paper shows leaks the batch is rejected.
Another sample is taken an inflated until it explodes, if it explodes before the target pressure the whole batch is rejected.
So every contraceptive is tested, not even food is tested to this extent.
Bless him.
They do say its good to learn something new everyday, and in Tylers case, everything is new because he retains 0% information. Love the videos though
Rolls-Royce made aeroplane engines in ww2 ( for the spitfire) and still sells jet engines today
The awesome sound of a Merlin engine is sublime and totally unmistakable! 🤘
"I think that may be a theme today" where you don't know Jack Shite about ANYTHING!!
I’m Canadian and I have heard of most of these.
I've got 3 pairs of Dr Martens shoes .... they're very comfortable, very well made, very hard wearing and pretty expensive
Rolls Royce is also one of the major jet engines manufacturers on the planet
Yes, I come from Derby and have been to Bristol, LOL
And the British invented the jet engine
TYLER COMES ACROSS AS VERY VERY IGNORANT OF ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE UNITED KINGDOM.
We aren’t the centre of the world, he knows a lot more than most Americans. It’s expected for us to know more about them than they know about us.
