So who's dowloading illegal porn at the Vatican?


Someone at the Vatican Is Illegally Downloading Porn
Internet records reveal a resident of the city-state is Holy See-ing a lot of porn stars Lea Lexis and Krissy Lynn.
April 9, 2013 |


The Vatican, home of the spiritual leader of the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics and famous gay bathhouse landlord, has a new, spicy scandal on its hands: Someone living in the small city-state has been illegally downloading porn.

According to a story in the New York Post, a file-sharing website used an anti-piracy service to examine the Vatican’s download history and found that, in addition to a taste for crime dramas like “Chicago Fire” and “The Americans,” a resident of the Holy See has been illegally downloading porn. http://www.alternet.org/media/someone-vatican-illegally-downloading-porn

Why is it illegal? And why download, it's 2013 for cripes sake, stream that shit on your IPhone like everyone else.

The Vatican doesn't use an Internet content filter that would log this back to the user?

is that they are "tracking" through file sharing. It means they downloaded copy-righted porno movies.

but a good hacker/user can certainly route their illegal porn downloads through Vatican internet.

conditions. Did the DLing stop after he left or is it still going on? That would eliminate Ratzinger.
