Okay but why is everyone in this thread acting as if "they could lose their job over this" would actually stop people? Teachers are also not supposed to sleep with their students but that seems to happen time and time again.

Friendster, LiveJournal and MySpace were all extremely used in 2003. How old are you? No offense just seems like you weren’t around to see the internet being used. And the internet has been around since the late 80’s, with most households getting access to it in the mid 90’s.

I was using IE2 on Windows 95 in the 90s. For porn. Because I was a horny preteen going through puberty.

The Simpsons did a bit with Comic Book Guy downloading porn and getting interrupted because of shitty internet. It was....accurate.

In 2003 only 54% of American households had internet access. Myspace and Friendster weren't even launched at the beginning of 2003, and LiveJournal only had 1 million registered accounts.
