Nope, my browsing is pretty tame compared to alot of people. They will just see that I love women in thigh high socks/stockings. Love me some thighs.

The statute of limitations for piracy is 3 years according to google so I'm good there. So for me just some mild embarrassment over being outed as an anime nerd and my somewhat vanilla porn viewing *shrug* no biggie. My boss might wanna talk to me about how much time I spend on reddit and reading manga at work tho..

Posting history? 99% I wouldn't care about if it got out. A small 1% would subject me to mild embarrassment.

Browsing history? Let's say 80% don't care, 20% embarrassing, lol
 
I'd just hope anyone I know and care about would never see. Also it kind of makes it hard to become a celebrity or have big clout if they could see some shittttt
 
If I would have allegedly downloaded all that music back it college it could have allegedly been ugly. It's a good thing I didn't do it, allegedly. Porn-wise they'd get bored and focus on the rest of you.
 
Depends how pissy Adobe and Autodesk got about me ahem *procuring* their software during my college days. Also all the music from when I was 15 and napster was the shit.

The worst thing I did is a bunch of piracy. Also, when I was a teenager (like 16), I stumbled across a child (technically younger than 18) porn site, which I reported immediately.

So I'm pretty sure I'm more in the clear than most. I think many people would be shocked at the sheer amount of time I spend on the site called neogaf.com, but nothing else would be world shattering.

Probably in jail. Found child porn on Kazaa when I was like 12 or 13. Video was titled something "Princess sucks off daddy" or something of the sort. Not what I was expecting. So yeah...probably jail?
 
I think I'll survive. Sure, there's porn. But the rest of my history is going to put people to sleep:

video games
nature stuff (like reading about snakes and bugs?)
long-winded discussions about books
PBS
science stuff like how magnets or batteries work
endless Wikipedia articles
 
If you go to my Google plus profile you can see my search history. Mostly just let Lego news, trump stuff, NBA, boobs and hot celebrity pics. I don't give a shit

all those people saying jail is a little worrying.

Agreed. I've certainly looked at sites associated with illegal activities (nothing immoral as far as I'm concerned), but none of those sites would land me in jail just for curiosity.

What are you guys doing that would land you in jail? Because even if copyright infringement would get you in trouble, piracy wouldn't show up in your browsing history; just pages which host pirated content.
