For how long does 8ta/Telkom keep a client's browsing history?

[Ridah]

e.g. For how long will they know who was using a certain IP address at a certain time.

Oh boy! What did you do?

I do not think Telkom tracks online activity of its clients. It only will if the SA cops get involved.

They will keep it forever either 8ta or those who requested it.

Hi Ridah

8ta (currently) does not do deep packet inspection.

Thank you

I hope you are clearing your browser history, cash and cookies on a very regular basis

If you're paranoid about your data being retrieved and wish to securely erase the contents of your Hard Disk, download DBAN and burn the iso to a cd. Boot from the CD-Rom and choose autowipe option with 1-pass. It may take a couple of hours or more, depending on the size of your disk.

I think everybody has misunderstood your question. I would think they would keep connection logs for quite a while, I guess this would include stuff like the number which was used and the client MAC address probably.

EDIT: Ahh, I see thread title is not the same as your post question. I would stand by my above answer though in regard to only connection logs (i.e. only logging when you connect/disconnect and not url logging).
