00:00 So Robert, what's the issue you're finding at the moment?
00:03 The invasion of privacy, the invasion of my workplace
00:08 by people that can't navigate without Google Maps.
00:14 There's a breach of biosecurity, it's endangering lives
00:19 and it's opening us up to potential theft.
00:26 You've tried to fix it, what have you done and how's that gone?
00:32 Well, trying to fix it is...
00:38 You know, an ageing farmer, I suppose, going up against, you know...

00:47 The likes of Google is a pretty unfair battle.
00:52 I don't know how to navigate my way through that sort of jungle.
00:56 And I've approached various authorities
00:59 and they have not been very helpful either.
01:03 They've basically passed the buck
01:05 and I'm just left here to fall back on a piece of three-ply and some house paint.
