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.

How one company is reducing agricultural waste on Earth Day

As the world celebrates Earth Day on Monday, one agriculture organization is reflecting on the work it accomplished in 2023. According to a release from CleanFarms, a non-profit group that ensures farmers actively contribute to a healthy environment, the agriculture industry used many recycling and safe disposal programs for agricultural plastics and packaging last year, and there’s certainly an appetite for more solutions in the future. One example that CleanFarms offers is AgriRÉCUP in Quebec, which operated four permanent collection programs and two pilot programs in the province that captured pesticide and fertilizer containers, plastics for hay and silage protection and seed, and pesticide and fertilizer bags. “We’re thrilled to have seen so much expansion in our programs last year,” said Barry Friesen, executive director of Cleanfarms. “Earth Day encourages us to acknowledge the important work we get to do on behalf of our members, with farmers, first sellers, ag retailers, an

More incentive for grads to consider agriculture-focused vet career

On any given day, Prince Albert, SK veterinarian Peter Surkan sees roughly 40 patients, but for every patient he sees, there are dozens more waiting. To accommodate all of the clients in the area, Surkan said there needs to be more vets, especially in smaller, rural communities. His practice in Prince Albert only has three full and part-time veterinarians, compared to 10 vets a decade ago. On Friday, the province announced $13.2 million in funding to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM) in 2024-25, representing a $667,000 increase over last year. The money will partially subsidize 25 training seats for Saskatchewan students. “We continue to see a rising demand for veterinary services in the province and they are a key support for our growing economy,” Advanced Education Minister Gordon Wyant said in a press release. “This is a priority investment for Advanced Education that supports the continued implementation with five new seats, bringing the total now to 25 seats, t

Manitoba Pork, in partnership with the Government of Canada and the Province of Manitoba, and in collaboration with Manitoba’s agricultural sector, is pleased to announce that the Squeal on Pigs Manitoba initiative will receive over $2.6 million over the next four years to further the work of tracking and removing wild pigs from Manitoba’s landscape. “Wild pigs continue to thrive across Manitoba and are vectors for many diseases that have a devastating impact on both domestic pigs as well as other animals,” said Dr. Wayne Lees, project coordinator, Squeal on Pigs Manitoba. “Together with our partners in both the provincial and federal governments, as well as Manitoba’s agricultural sector and stakeholders across the province, this new funding will allow us to further our efforts to track, trap, and remove wild pigs from the landscape and protect our province.” The goal of the Squeal on Pigs campaign is to identify where wild pigs are in Manitoba, control their spread, and remove as m
