it's weird how some kids think they can't be caught looking at porn if they delete it from the web history. parents can access the hard drive to see it if they know how to. amirite?

Quick question: If I'm on a shared wireless network, can my parents see my browser history? (I'm not supposed to be on facebook until my parents can confirm I'll have a GPA higher than 3.9 cumulative ,let alone at 2 am) ?? (i'm speaking about a laptop connected to a private internet network)

yes. even laptops have a web history and a hard drive.

Well yes, they obviously do. But can they view my history through their computer if we are connected to the same wireless network? Or do I need to delete my Facebook and deny all of their claims? :(

Are they the type to check web history and harddrives? because my parents can barely open their emails I don't think they could find my webhistory if I deleted it.

my mom needs my help to check her e-mail. but i think she hired a guy one time to check the hard drive to see if my dad had been looking at porn lmfao.

I think you should focus on your academics. Spaces come AFTER the comma, just one of them, and not before. If they're really good hackers they can theoretically figure it out from the main router. Otherwise, they'd have to go on your computer.

Honestly, its weird that you think parents would actually go through all of the trouble just to catch their kid watching porn...

Or the simple cache... It's easily seen in the program files and won't be deleted when you delete the history. Ask any government agent or investigator. They'll tell you it can always be accessed. ono

Or you can empty your cache...

There's also the recovery software then.

If you're really good you can still get to it though. Hard drive space isn't actually wiped clean after deletion until it's needed again, so unless your hard drive is totally full, it's still there...

I love how boys and girls alike are startled and horrified by this revelation. And that, children, is why you request your own laptop.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but not many parents know how to do that... or even care about it.

if they access your web history, but you cleared it, nothing to find there. just make sure to clear things like your google search log. most browsers have a "private browsing" option that automatically does all that for you, not write to your web history or cookies, or google/website cache, etc. only way to stop them reading the router/ip access is with proxies,end-to-end encryption, etc. and they cant see it on your harddrive unless your download it, things your browser loads on web pages saves to ram. which clears after the computer shuts down. sincerely, a teenager with tech savvy christian parents xD

I don't watch porn, but I've looked at some pretty fucked up shit. Now I'm afraid.

It's not even my fault either! My friends made me search things such as "Eel Soup" and "2 Girls 1 Cup" for the lolz. I WAS NOT ENJOYING THEM AT ALL.

It feels good to be an adult and not have to worry about that. Plus, my parents don't know the first thing about computers.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

ummm... what age are we talking here? i doubt a 10 year old would be watching porn.

Okay unless you got caught before I'm pretty sure your parents are going to disassemble a computer on a hunch or randomly think "I wonder what Johnny's been doing lately..."

My parents still use Internet Explorer. I don't think they can disassemble a cardboard box, let alone a computer.

Yes, but what parents are really going to dig that deep to monitor their child watching porn? They most likely did it when they were young, or do it now.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

while yes, Some parents can do this my parents wouldn't 1. i doubt they know how to. i swear once my dad needed to print a pic from the internet so he unplugs the usb giving the computer internet and plugs in the printer cable and then bitches "how did you screw up this computer!?" 2. why would they? just sayin'

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If they can do that, yeah :P most of em don't have a clue, but yeah, some parents are quite smart nowadays

by Anonymous 13 years ago

So, I totally didn't think of that when I was watching shit on my cousin's computer >.> I hope they have no reason to look at their hard drive.
