[QUOTE=PatTheMarmot;5828310]Well. Maybe.
Firstly, let this be a lesson. If you aren't using a VPN then this is your wake up call. And I don't mean a free VPN either. Some of those are actually run by governments or other entities who use them to mine data. Get a decent one and pay for it. They don't cost much.
Second, browsing such sites isn't a crime, so nobody's going to prosecute you. What they could do with that data might be useful in a criminal case later if some kind of serious crime happens, but it isn't like they'll come knocking on your door just because you were looking at the ads. Looking at ads is perfectly legal.
The real interesting question is how they'd get that kind of data in the first place. Any website is capable of keeping track of the IP addresses that connect to it as well as certain specific technical details, like what operating system it's running, the browser being used and maybe the MAC address. (The MAC address is like the fingerprint of a specific network adapter.) That doesn't include the user's name or anything like that. So does that mean they subpoena'd this information from the ad site owner? If so, then that would mean they have a list of IPs and possibly machines that hit the site by MAC address.
So stay calm, boys. It ain't as scary as all that.
But seriously. Use a VPN.[/QUOTE]Retired Network Engineer. I think this VPN fade is funny. This site is a problem, because it does not use HTTPS. HTTPS is encrypted, so it is secure. VPN just "hides" you from the website you are connecting to. Google has figured out how to track via cookies even when you use VPN. That is why I do not use google anymore. They are more dangerous than LE (law enforcement). I think the people who preach security and then have a gmail email address are hilarious. If LE really wants to track you, VPN provide a little more security and I stress a little more. If they really want to track you it is hard to stop LE or google for that matter. The biggest problem I have seen is people use passwords that are to easy to hack. VPN without a complex password is not a good idea. Security starts with good passwords. Get a good password manager and use its password generator to create complex hard to crack passwords. If allowed, I use 16 character passwords that include at least one upper case letter, one lower case letter, one number and one special character.

Nevermind that some of those very same "VPN" providers are tracking what you do. Including some of the very paid ones that the person you replied to is talking about. Some of those self-proclaimed "no log VPNs" certainly had quite a few logs on hand when they were looked into.

I almost died laughing when he told me his password was Passw0rd. He actually thought they would never think of using a capital P and zero for the o. I bet that is one of the early passwords a password cracker tries.

[QUOTE=Thenocturnal;5833098]Agree. A VPN service is just a man-in-the-middle attack that rolled a critical hit.[/QUOTE]It does provide some security when going to unencrypted sites like this one. If the site is HTTPS, then there is not much benefit. I think all the antivirus companies have jumped on the bandwagon to generate more income. It really bothers me that my antivirus company insists you use their VPN when connecting to your bank. I do not want anyone in the middle of my bank communications.
VPN has its place. I supported the VPN concentrator where I worked before retiring. We did not allow split tunneling, so it protected our company network. VPN is more about protecting the company you connect too than protecting the users using it.
VPN can be used to hide your identity, but not from the VPN provider. I love that the VPN companies say the do not log you and then give the logs they do not have to LE. I am sure if you drill down in their terms of service, it states that. Logs are very helpful when a user has an issue, so I expect most if not all VPN providers to keep logs. They may not plan to share them, but LE can force them to share them.

Sky at hillcrest heights
Hi. Does anyone have any intel on sky at a massage place at hillcrest heights. Rubmaps says she has natural Dd cup teddies. Just wanted to hear people talk about how good those teddies are and what her nipples are like, and whether she is hot and has good personality. Thanks.

Dinah
Not much can be added that hasn't already been said. I was visiting for a work convention and was slightly put off by having to go to a location in Baltimore city but as many mentioned her place is very safe. It was a bit cluttered but no issues upon getting there or once there. Curvy woman just my type pictures are of her or representative of. I followed the instructions outlined in her ad and had no hiccups whatsoever and had the best time with an independent massage provider I've ever had. Consummate professional that was reliable personable and highly skilled in every area. Rub is solid. Sloppy CBJ to end my relaxation with her that I could hardly notice the cover was on. I'm quite confident I have found my go-to when I have to visit this area. I did a prepayment special as advertised on her.
Twitter and I had no issues whatsoever.
I've noticed there's a lot of independent escorts but not so many body rub providers that are middle-aged and Caucasian up here. If anyone has any other suggestions feel free to DM me that fit the mold I'm looking for. I tend to stick to the parlors at home but when traveling I like to go independent.
