How do you think your parents would react if they went through your internet browsing history?

[Chased]

I don't think they would understand what half the websites are I'm looking at.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

It's practically all Escapist, YouTube, and random Google Image searches for reaction faces and pictures for The Escapist.

I don't look up anything... NSFW on my computers. God no, anyone could see them, and my dad would get suspicious if my browsing history was deleted.

 

[Evelynia]

Nothing too serious, it's mostly gaming sites, the Escapist, and the WoW forums. They've accepted that my hobbies are gibberish to them, wouldn't be a biggie.
My Skype history, on the other hand, must always, always remain encrypted.

 

[KennardKId5]

A couple of safeguards against this very thing:
1. Use a decoy browser. I have Firefox and IE set up(even though I never use them) and I actually use Google Chrome.
2. Ever heard of Incognito Browsing?
If they got past my double-redundant system, they wouldn't be too surprised, but the pony stuff might shock them.

 

[Carbonyl]

I'm pretty sure they'd need me to explain what a browser history is first.
After that? There's nothing embarrassing, my dad might be excited by some of the pubmed articles I've been using for class.

 

[JasonKaotic]

Facebook... more Facebook... Escapist... Facebook... Tumblr... Escapist... Facebook... Youtube...
Yeah, they'd probably give less reaction than Gordon Brown would after experiencing a twig.

 

[Supertegwyn]

.....

Son, we need to talk.

 

[Lavi]

Dad would probably troll about me being leftist. Most confusing thing would be the Ponies and anime.

 

[Condor219]

Pretty much like this:

This is hilarious. Also is true.

Though I prevent that from happening through a combination of Chrome's incognito window and regular history clearing.

 

[Doowoo]

They would find out i have a great taste in porn .

 

[Mount]

Let's just say there's a reason I've asked my roommate to format my HD if I should die.

 

[Akytalusia]

well, they'd find out i'm just as boring on the inside as i seem on the outside. they'd probably raise an eyebrow at the level of mlp:fim stuff though.

 

[band43seat]

if i didnt delete my history everytime i finish on a "certain" type of site, otherwise, they would probably disown me, or atleast check my room with a black light, and enter into a coma

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

They wouldn't care since there's nothing there. My browser history gets emptied as soon as I close my browser. It doesn't stay and I'm not sure why; doesn't matter really since there is nothing bad although knowing my dad he could find something that he thinks is bad (which is pretty much everything).

 

[tobi the good boy]

I run everything in Incognito mode so I've got no browser history >

 

[hotsauceman]

My mom? She wouldnt care about anything. She knows im eccentric and likes weird things.
My Dad on the other hand would go ballisitic about the things i like.

 

[FernandoV]

As most non-retarded people, I clear my history. They'd probably ask about some of the things I search up on ebay (most notably Barbie Limited Edition plates, I was searching to see how much I could sell them for :3).

From my non-PG history they'd...well...they wouldn't talk about it. Out of embarrassment.

 

[MetaKnight670]

Well, most of the time I go incognito....
Bound to forget sometime though (not that there is really anything that bad).
They'd probably just ask what was up with all ponies.

 

[v3n0mat3]

No shock. Honestly.

 

[J4RD]

They would be quite unsurprised. Nothing dirty here...
On a completely unrelated note, the shortcut for private browsing in Firefox is Shift + Print.
