How safe is your computer from big brother.

Computor privaticy, how much information do you think or willing to let the government know about you and what, see, do on your computor. Let you into a little secret. You let them know everything from the sites you visit to the accounts you keep, even those naught sites.

 

How are they doing it.  I was watching youtube about a man who exposed micro soft selling information to the USA government in the name of war on terror. Attach is the video.

 

How they are doing it is through the privicy options on your computor. I will incude how to switch it off, in another attached video. After doing it myself an unsual thing happened, at 7 o'clock I got a phone call from what I thought was my provider, an indian woman spoke asking if I had any problems with my computor whether it was slow starting up the net or my msn program. Then she hang up when I started asking questions, on why she rang. Now I am not saying its some conspirsy but, I would of thought if someone was phoning you you would want to know why.

 

Micosoft is a private company that is selling and using your information to the government of the USA, Now if they are doing that in the name of secrity issues, which is against the law in this country. Then what is stopping them from selling on to other government agencies, banks, multinations and so on. Or the USA government selling it on.

 

Do you want the tax department looking at your books, or your kids photos. Personnal letters. You name it.

I got a similar call from a man who had an accent, just from watching the second video!!!!!!!! The problem is not Microsoft - but may be connected in someway to these videos!!! It doesn't make sense to me - but the only thing I did was watch the second video.

I know for a fact that credit card and banks are selling information to corpations. It is just one step away from governments doing the same. If its anything you can trust your government, to keep your private information safe for a price. Meaning if they are getting into bed with private or public companies in the why they are writing their policies. In other words you give your private information freely and have to pay to keep it, that way. Which would make you pay through your taxs, pay to put your paper work in, pay the fee for the approval and pay for privacy of information.

Hi Richard and Bristow:

This technology is fairly new and criminals will look for ways to exploit info.
Be careful...
Thanks,

Thank you for your consern, but my point is governments using it without permittion for profit, or creating laws to use it for profit, without your consent. Big brother as Richard said he got a phone call for watching a video. American FBI and CIA now spying on Canadians?

Info on Computer Repair Telemarketing Scams - this is what they tried on me. I hung up within 5 seconds. I don't think the FBI is running a computer repair scam.

Yes your right, I got another phone call this afternoon, from them too, told them to f off. But they got our phone number to do the scam, which proves some thing. I been doing my own research, and in the end its up to each idvual to make up his their own mind. Governments have attendancy to throw radical ideas and gauge the reaction throw leaks and hearsy or use an event to push throw policies. Which as been proven again and again. Now they don't bother, the people have given us the mandate to rule. As a Queensland permier said, as she sold everything that the state owned.

Ontario Animal Health Network (OAHN) Swine Network Quarterly Industry Report

Starting in 2015, Senecavirus A (SVA) has caused intermittent complications with respect to the export of Canadian cull animals to the United States. This disease resembles reportable swine vesicular diseases. This is a national issue and since June 2025 has impacted Ontario cull sow movements. In July 2025, the APHIS and the USDA removed the export eligibility status for a cull sow assembly in Ontario due to SVA lesions being seen in cull sows sent to a USDA processing facility. These lesions initiated foreign animal disease investigations at this US processing plant. The suspect animal(s) were initially quarantined for individual inspection and further testing. Since the initial site, another 2 Ontario cull sow assembly sites have also had their export eligibility status revoked by APHIS and the USDA for similar reasons. The affected assembly sites accept cull sows from Quebec, the Maritimes and Ontario. Each affected assembly site must action the USDA requirements including emptyin

New restrictions placed on hunting, farming 'incredibly destructive' wild boars in Alberta

Wild boars have been declared "a pest in all circumstances" by the Alberta government effective Dec. 1, meaning new restrictions have been placed on keeping them in captivity and hunting them in the wild. It is now illegal to keep, buy, sell, obtain or transport wild boars in Alberta without a permit. That also means no new wild boar farms will be permitted in the province. The hunting and trapping of wild boars in Alberta is banned as well, with the exception of land owners or occupants killing the animals on their own land. Any person who kills a wild boar is now required to report the date, location and number of boars killed to the province as soon as possible. Hannah McKenzie, the province's wild boar specialist, says the changes were made due to the dangers posed by existing wild boar populations and the risks associated with more escaping from captivity. "In addition to damaging agriculture and the environment, wild boar pose a serious risk for the introduction and spread of

CUSMA Review Raises Concerns Over Potential U.S. Tariffs on Canadian Pork

As the first formal review of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) approaches in July, pork producers across North America are bracing for potential impacts—especially the possibility of new U.S. tariffs on Canadian agriculture. Florian Possberg, Partner at Polar Pork Farms, says the U.S. political landscape is shaping expectations. He notes that U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly pushed for a baseline 15% tariff on foreign goods in recent global trade discussions. If that approach carries into the CUSMA renegotiation, it could disrupt one of the pork sector’s most critical trade corridors. Free Trade Has Been Essential for Pork Movement Possberg emphasizes that under CUSMA, both live hogs and processed pork products have flowed freely across borders without tariffs. This freedom is especially important given the highly integrated nature of North America’s pork supply chain. The best-case scenario, he adds, is that tariff-free access continues unchanged. The wor

FCC report highlights productivity as key to Canada’s agricultural future

Canadian farmers could see significant income gains and new opportunities if agricultural productivity growth returns to historic highs. The Farm Credit Canada (FCC) report titled Reigniting agricultural productivity in Canada, estimates that boosting productivity growth to two per cent annually could unlock $30 billion in additional farm income, generate $31 billion in GDP, and create nearly 23,000 jobs across the country. Canada has long been a standout among global food producers. Over the past half-century, the agriculture industry has achieved significant productivity growth through better farm management, improved input efficiency and technological innovation. The report warns, however, that productivity growth has slowed in recent years, threatening the industry’s competitiveness and Canada’s ability to meet growing national and global food demand. “Canada’s agricultural productivity growth has consistently outpaced other G7 countries for more than three decades, showing the s
