Who invented the abbreviation for isp in this society?
The abbreviation "ISP" stands for Internet Service Provider and was likely first used in the early days of the internet as a way to refer to companies that offer internet connectivity services to individuals and businesses. The specific individual credited with creating the abbreviation is not widely known, as it has become a common term in the tech industry.
What is the difference between an ASP and an ISP?
An ASP (Application Service Provider) provides software applications over the internet, while an ISP (Internet Service Provider) provides access to the internet. ISPs offer connectivity services like email, web hosting, and domain registration, whereas ASPs offer software applications for a fee.
Can a website trace your isp or personal info from logins and comments?
Yes, it is possible for a website to trace your ISP from logins and comments. Almost all websites track the IP Address of everyone that connects. The IP address is the unique numerical address assigned to your Internet connection (whenever you connect to the Internet, or turn on your cable/DSL modem, it is assigned an IP address). When you connect to a website - whether you login, or comment, etc... - your IP address is recorded in the logs. Based on that, the website owner can determine the time you connected, and the specific page you loaded, such as a login page. With the IP, they can look up who owns the IP, and therefore the ISP you are using. It is NOT possible to obtain your personal information from your ISP unless the ISP provides it. Normally the ISP will only provide this information to police agencies, or the courts on subpoena (assuming the ISP is in the United States. I am unfamiliar with international laws). Regardless, the ISP will not share your information with a regular person, or even the owner(s) of a website.
