Breaking News: University Staffs Visit Pornographic Sites....

 The figures obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the student newspaper The Tab uncover that University College London computers accessed Porn Hub a whopping 125,000 times in August. STAFF at a top London university visited online pornographic sites more than 5,000 times a day during the summer months, new data reveals.Between five and 10 per cent of the viewing figures were individual visitors because most hits are people viewing different pages on the same website, say industry experts.This means that between 6,250 and 12,000 university staff and delegates browsed the free site throughout August.Other sites, including Redtube and LiveJasmin, were visited in July and August up to 3,200 and 27 times, respectively. The figures record hits using the UCL network, which is used by staff and delegates staying on the University campus during summer months.The free erotic fiction site Literotica was also viewed by staff and visitors.The UCL Acceptable User Policy says the network is only to be used if "properly associated with the UCL programme of study or course for which a student is registered - and reasonable personal use".
Section two of the UCL Acceptable User Policy reads:

 "Reasonable personal use is defined as incidental andoccasional use which does not involve accessing, downloading, storing or sending offensive or inappropriate material or information, or is such as to amount to a criminal or civil offence."UCL press office said: "The figures provided were for individual 'data requests' to the websites."A visit to a single webpage is likely to generate many such requests, often dozens. Therefore the actual number of visitors to any website will be a tiny fraction of the overall number of data requests recorded. ""Illegal content, especially as defined by the Internet Watch Foundation, is blocked upstream at JANET."JANET is the acronym for the Joint Academic Network which provides network connections for universities and schools and the internet. "Although the AUP states that inappropriate material may not be accessed or downloaded, we do not have any outbound filtering in place - i.e. we log such access but do not block any legal content.
