Am I Over Reacting?

Man walks in to your farm, goes in to cubicle house, takes a video and posts it on facebook. First you know about it is when your mate texts you asking is it your place. Would you be ticked off ?

Now nothing wrong with video, shed looks well enough, but this is second time it’s been done without my consent. I’ve nothing to hide, place generally tidy, red tractor gets its way uninvited inspections will be the norm. But there was a bull in shed, albeit quiet but what if he attacked the person. Where would I stand?
I’m in middle of Tb test, at a glance I don’t think I’m going to get good news tomorrow, what way does that leave bio security, was his feet washed before or after?

A supplier of a product I bought. I’m not sure who in the company has taken the videos.
I think you should ask them. Generally if a company wants to use the equipment you bought to advertise then they should ask or offer you something in return.
You may have had something in the background that you did not want to go circulated on Facebook as some might then plan a wee visit in the early hours
 
Ah, possibly cubicle installers at a guess (happened to us)
Should have asked permission first though

Don’t mind photo/video being taken at time of install but this is 6 months later. Might as well have been a complete randomer, had no reason to be in my yard. Made a mess of install, I had to get someone else to sort them out. Yes I did get compensated and left on good terms but still think it’s rather cheeky.
