    I know a few years ago there was that thing about storing a rolling years history of all the websites each user had visited. Not the specific page but just the domain name.

    IIRC there was a discussion on how each ISP would even manage to store such a huge amount of data.

    Was this system implemented in the end of was it just one of those ideas that couldn’t work in reality?

      it was implemented as part of all ISP/Telco’s legal intercept capabilities.

      Use Tor, a VPN or a zero trust client like Cloudflare or Perimeter 81 to browse if you don’t want your internet connection records stored by your ISP.
