Hello all!

I am curious, anyone know a way to see if your internet connection or your computer is being monitor by your internet providers? Is there a way to see if the internet provider or even hackers spying on your computer?

And if you find out your internet provider is trying to get into your computer, what would you do about your internet provider?

Also, can they get into your computer using WIRELESS connection?

Well, we all know they can monitor while you are surfing the web but can they get into your Hard Drive and get information from you such as credit info and banking info? There are a lot of articles on the web about internet providers are monitoring every website you visit and there's a lot of legal issues about what they are doing.

Is there a way to block them and can you even send them a nasty virus back? HA HA HA

Our internet providers are watching all of us as we speak right now. ;-)

Below are some links I found about Internet Providers monitoring your every move:

I am talking more of a Home environment rather than a Work environment. When you are at work, for sure they will monitor your every move. But what about when you are at your own home?

There's a lot more info on this but you get the message. ;-)

I really couldn't care less if they looks at what I am on, They will see computerforum, google, maybe a couple of clan sites, youtube, usual stuff.

If people have something to hide, it is usually something they shouldn't be on, so it is a good thing ISPs know, if i get told about a super duper amazing computer thing now because I have been on computer forum alot, then it was worth it, the only people that seem to be bothered are the overly paranoid people (ie, 99.9% of the American population).

and surprise surprise, the articles you put, are from american sites, I haven't heard one complaint about this in British newspapers (which i read every day) or British news sites, which i visit every day

One thread would suffice to get your point/question across.
