Two summers ago I was spending some time in Italy, in my 'summer' home. Over there, I use a local ISP, Fastweb. At some point, I got an email saying my access would be blocked because some local law agency had flagged me for downloading pornographic material involving underage 'actors' at a particular website. The email included the name of the website - and it was the library at the University of Oklahoma - the school I still work at and where I was getting my PhD at the time. After some digging, they eventual found that the so-called porn was a file containing NYSE trading data from the CRSP database. Go figure what the heck triggered it...

I just hope our US-based netcops are less incompetent.
