ChrisJones 7,973 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Your IP address will be logged on anything and everything you use online. Your IP address is 'owned' for the failure of a better term at 0730 by the people you pay your internet bill to. They have your name address and billing information. Knowing how the UK's billing system works they probably have your zodiac sign, mother's maiden name, and DNA sample from your first born. As I believe it, and I'm open to correction here, in the UK your browsing information has to be kept by your ISP for 12 months because GCHQ thinks it's a great idea? If you've been naughty the IP address is run through a simple internet search. Screenshot of the issue is sent to the ISP and then they'd deal with it from there depending on the severity of the infringement. The main reason for the logs is for marketing. On here it's not an issue but the big dildo company that certain members regularly visit want to know just how voluminous and how many nodules for the further product lines... That information is worth a ton of money which is why pretty much everyone you do business with online either knowingly, or unknowingly, sells that information to anyone who wants it. I don't know if it's the same in the UK but you'll find your junkmail is strangely accurate and you can't place your finger on why... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

terryd 8,052 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 I always thought a IP address was s series of numbers linked to your internet service provider . Didn't think you could get someone's address from it true Quote Link to post Share on other sites

beamish78 142 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 They get to grease up each others toes at Christmas, Dont worry about IP`s if someone wants to find out about you, its all there online, if you know where to look. nearly every site you visit will drop a cookie on your connection. from this they can learn everything you do online, big business and a shed load of money made this way, tailoring adverts for individual people based on the browsing habits, if you are that paranoid then dont use the internet or a cash point. or pay for anything on a card, dont order from anywhere, but they still collect information. 1984 and all that is now obsolete, technology is there to collect everything.

I understand that but the way the thread was going it sounds like knowing someones IP address is the unspoken equivalent of 'taking it offline' which is complete and utter horseshit! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Just for the record Peterhunter, you told the whole forum where you live when you put it up, asking if anyone wanted to go lamping with you.... And no, didn't find that either, i just looked on your profile to see if it were true. Any argument any of my mates are involved with on here, i let them sort out for themselves, they are big enough and ugly enough to do so... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
