A friend of mine runs a group of servers in NYC. He hosts a lot of data, enough to make a statement like "94% of all money spent on the internet is in the porn industry*" and sound like he knows what he's talking about. He also noted that something like 98%* of all bandwidth is porn.


On topic for the thread, though, one of my friends, at work in a small 4-person office, comments that he needs to find some sporting goods, and then adds, "I wonder if there's a Dick's Sporting Goods around here?" A moment later, we hear his shocked gasp at the returns from a google search for "dicks connecticut." Ouch.



*Not certain of the precise numbers, but these are pretty good ballparks, iirc.
