Re: justice said by PhragX:
Serves him right. I wonder how you catch something like that though...
I don't know how they knew his was going to child porno sites, but some routes can show you the Mac addresss that's being used on the network.
Now I don't know if the cops caught him in the act, or if someone noticed their connection was getting slow and logged into their router and checked some of the stats and logs.

| Yes some routers will show the mac addy... but the common joe out there dosnet know what to look for... think of this.... Broadband in the Portland area is on the rise, like other areas of the us... but lots cable and dsl popping up.... As i hear about friends and what not getting the new internet connection I talk to them about firewall and protection... Most are ignorant to it... Most I find are just connecting to the www to do some surfing and thats it. They basically walk to computer and expect it to work correclty and connect ...let them download what ever they want recipes... news... yahoo sites... and then their done. They never think of the security issue. Further more even some of the "computre friends" I have still dont know how to open ports or enable or check logs on there routers... so you have to know what MAC addy is and most seem to not know or care... |
