It was just a point that by entering the realm of E-File, you've granted complete access to your computer, with all the meat and potatoes it has in it. I'm not of the tin foil crowd. I think it's important for those that are new at this to know exactly what using this method entails.

"THIS COMPUTER" is referring to their server running the code that is generating the message. Not the client side computer (aka your computer). I suppose they could have worded it more clearly but calm down.

And the communications they're referring to is the information you are voluntarily submitting (i.e., the Form 1 and attachments). |

And thus by extension, every computer connected to the internet, since i'm assuming you aren't plugging a hardline into their internal network right? But yes, if you have a .gov laptop/desktop etc. using a vpn connection, you would be agreeing to that since you are connected to their network on their equipment, and already know that.
An eform is not that. |

If you are familiar with computers, networking, and web based application, this is an obvious statement where "this network" means the internal network @ the ATF, and "this computer" means the server you are currently connected to. Since the servers for database back-end are often different than the web server front-end that you are interacting with, they are covering all of their bases. Now put away your tinfoil hat. |

It's not just efiling, it's ANY computer ANYWHERE connected to ANY federal network.
Had the same language when I was becoming an NRCS contractor to write conservation plans. Was very vocal about it in the class and everyone else thought I was a nutjob. |

It specifically says "ALL COMPUTERS CONNECTED TO THIS NETWORK, " While entering data, your computer is connected to the network, so at least for the time your computer is connected to the network they can do whatever they want with you computer, if you haven't implemented appropriate security features on your local machine. |

Try that one in court, that your computer connected to their network isn't really a computer connected to their network as they really meant a cluster of servers running the eforms site. Chances of anything happening are less then getting struck by a meteor, but that's what it says. |

If the tinfoil brigade is really worried about eFiling, yall probably shouldn't be sending the govt all the information on your weapons, your fingerprints, address, and other personal information by paper filing. They might even be getting your DNA off of the saliva on the envelope. Of course, that is yall's option.

Standard warning banner. It is a basic information security best practice. It does not give the government the legal ability to spy on your computer. It just states that they will monitor their information systems and the data sent to them, including data about your computer (IE your User-Agent string sent by your browser when you request a page, IP address, etc..).
FWIW, they actually "monitor" your computer less than your bank does when you sign into online banking. |
