Your porn history could soon become public knowledge!

If the recent leaks like The Fappening and the Ashley Madison hack are anything to go by, we think it’s probably time to get very worried indeed.

Your porn history could soon become public knowledge!

New Delhi: Watching porn soon might become a nightmare! Yes, it's true. If certain reports are to be believed, your porn history may soon become public knowledge, all thanks to hackers.

If you're thinking along the lines of the “incognito mode”, you're in for another rude awakening. That can be accessed too!

Software engineer and blogger Brett Thomas is the one who made the shocking revelation. Unilad.co.uk posted an excerpt from his blog that said, “If you are watching/viewing porn online in 2015, even in Incognito mode, you should expect that at some point your porn viewing history will be publicly released and attached to your name.

At any time, somebody could post a website that allows you to search anybody by email or Facebook username and view their porn browsing history. All that’s needed are two nominal data breaches and an enterprising teenager that wants to create havoc.

I think the next big internet privacy crisis could expose the private and potentially embarrassing personal data of regular people to their neighbours.”

There you go! And as if this wasn't cringeworthy enough, if hackers gain access to just one website which has your personal details, they can track this back to a list of the adult websites you’ve visited and any of the questionable pornographic content you may have searched for.
