[QUOTE="JacobDaddy, post: 2030328, member: 7280"] As a person that manages labs of computers with anonymous access used across many campuses I usually have a pretty good idea of who is using any particular computer. People have behavior patterns that can be easily noted. People tend to use the same computers and as soon as you log into your Twitter/Facebook/Instagram/Flickr/Google+, etc you can be pinpointed. If you think that the largest ISP in Oklahoma is not logging your activity you are mistaken. They may not be able to track what you did on each site but they have a history of what sites you visited in what order. I have witnessed subpoena's come into an ISP for a particular IP address at a date/time. Within a couple of minutes I was able to see what account was associated with that IP address on the given date/time. I am not trying to scare anybody just be aware that the places you go CAN be tracked and be done so retroactively. 99.9% of us have nothing to hide. As far as Tor project, mac spoofing, proxy servers and IPSEC tunnels to VPN Servers it will slow down the authorities but will not stop them completely. They have their ways of peeling back the layers of the internet. [/QUOTE]
