I think this is old news. By now everyone should know that anything that ends up in your browser may be getting reported. Regardless of how it got there or what you clicked or didn't click or what popped up or didn't etc.

I deliberately surf gay porn or worse every once in a while just to gross out whoever's watching over my shoulder.

This is being done at the ISP level I'm thinking. Any connection to the net is probably getting snooped on and trigger words or sites or whatever are getting logged and so forth whatever else they will do with that data. I guess this is fine when it helps prevent real crime but not when it crosses the line to public profiling and monitoring.

not just what you surf
remember that if you play video games and use their voice channels which everyone does these days this is all digital over the internet and so it is also treated the same way

Right. Anything digital is easily captured and checked or stored or whatever. I think it is interesting how much of this is going on without any notice though. sign of the times.

In some cases it does not even have to be reported.
Just saw some CNN crap were high school students were posting pictures of themsleves drinking on Facebook. Well, police show up at the HS and lets just say measures were being taken.
Looks like law enforcement has lots of time to surf the net too...

I saw that too, same with myspace. The Internet is now as good a place as any to see and catch criminal activity.
