Peoples have you noticed that you sometimes get a thumbs up or down when you post a question even though no one has answered your question as yet. I've noticed it twice today.

So when YA's team were having a coffee break the other day do you think they were installing survelence devices to spy on us.......oooh! Curious goings on!

Sometimes the questions don't deserve an answer from some people just a rating I guess.

Oh yeah. There are gremlins and trolls and spooks and ghouls, both high tech and low tech.

In addition to the people who hover about looking to tick their approval and disapproval of every utterance, there are the high tech security layers protecting the system and us, not only from profanities and the obvious abuses like multiple identity use, spamming and phishing, but they also monitor for scenario keywords and phrases relating to conspiracies and cover-ups. Lots of people have noticed this because it's inconsistent across the various international servers. Not all countries allow the scrutiny and covert surveillance users are put under here.

Haven't you noticed yourself being required to log your password and 'verify' your signed in status for no good reason occasionally? If you have the presence of mind to check, you can often continue using yahoo without confirming your log in details by opening new windows. You're not always signing in with these confirmation screens because you're sign in hasn't really expired. You're just being tagged. You're not meant to notice, of course. There are random incidences of these but the logs distinguish these from the triggered ones and patterns emerge. It's surprising what can be learnt from these little spy tags over time.

Actually, I'm just trying to catch you out while you're a little bit paranoid. They're not really watching your every move and monitoring your online activity. And please don't even think that they do the same thing with your email..... Sleep well tonight.

No gremlins today. Can be a pain when they are on coffee break though. Just have to be patient.
