I actually watched all 18 minutes of that linked videos and omg lol!
The beginning and the end where the best. John Oliver talking about protecting your privacy D*** picks.

The end was probably my favorite, where they show the honest Apple commercial about losing your phone so some creepy guy like Gary here can pleasure himself to pictures of your family. Lol

All that aside, John Oliver did a fantastic job putting all the details in order and explaining them, while keeping the comedic value.
