Logs are records of information transmitted across networks, created whenever you visit a website through your ISP. This log will usually detail your IP address, the site you visited, time of connection, what you did, and how long you spent on the site.
Third parties can use some of this data to identify you, determine your location, and track your browsing habits. For instance, your ISP can tell if you’ve connected to Netflix from New York and streamed/downloaded shows for 2 hours. This information is seemingly harmless, but marketers can exploit it to send you targeted ads, or it can be used to track your torrent activity. Law enforcement agencies could even use this information to trace a suspect.
This is a terrific blog post!
Logs are created when you visit a website and contain information such as your IP address, the site visited, connection time, actions taken, and duration of visit. Third parties can use this data to identify and track users, leading to targeted ads or tracking of torrent activity. Law enforcement can also utilize these logs in investigations.
