There’s no way of knowing what happened there.
But back in the mid to late 2000’s we had a whole bunch of residential internet customers and every so often one would blow their traffic cap by a bunch and would ring up and say “Your billing system is wrong!”.
Then whoever could be bothered in the office would do some modest analysis on their netflow data and come up with something like "18% of your traffic this month was redtube.com, 33% was pornhub.com and 9% was xhamster.com.
We never knew if whoever was on the phone was the raging porn addict or it was one of their associates. Either way they would say “Oh well, I guess we will never know then. Thanks for your help. Bye.”. Followed by them quietly paying the bill.
You actually stored that?
Current ISPs have to by law. Just incase you go on howtobeaterrorist.com and need to be stopped. It’s not overstepping at all. Definitely not.
You know, I would also like to beat errorists.

FTFY
I just tried that url and it’s down
ISPs still can track your online activity, it’s up to them whether or not they will store it
Yep, any time you have a traffic cap or bill for traffic you’ve got to have data to back up what you are billing for.
More recently CDN’s ( and widespread SSL adoption ) have made it a whole lot less obvious what sites the user is going to. I suspect that nice clearcut list of porn sites from 2007 would just look like some cloudflare, akamai and google these days.
That’s the face of a man who thought she wouldn’t take it this far

They both know each other knows, but at this point, throwing in the towel is going to hurt their pride too much.

This joke is old and tired. Stop making it.

That bloke looks like he doesn’t even know HOW to order porn over the TV.
I honestly don’t know of a bigger incentive driving people to learn tech, than porn.
I learned because of videogames but that was also before puberty so…
He’s been mastering this look to trick fools like you!
What joke?
