Japan worker in 780,000 porn hits

A local council employee in Japan has been punished after it was discovered he had accessed porn websites at work more than 780,000 times in nine months.

His superiors were alerted to the problem only when his computer became infected with a virus.

The 57-year-old man, who has not been named, works for the city of Kinokawa in southern Japan.

He held on to his job, but has been demoted and his wages have been cut by about 20,000 yen ($190; £80) a month.

Each day he would turn up to work, but once in his office it seems unlikely he got much done.

A council investigation found that he viewed more than 750,000 pornographic websites in nine months.

His habit reached its peak last July when he surfed for porn more than 177,000 times during office hours.

That works out at almost 10,000 pages a day, or more than 20 each minute he was at his desk.

A council official, trying to explain why no-one had noticed, said that each employee's desk was set apart from the others.

The man was discovered only when his computer became infected with a virus, prompting officials to look at his web-browser history.

He has not been sacked but he has been demoted and his pay cut by about $200 a month. No doubt he is also proving to be a little more productive now.

    I can't begin to imagine how nervous and embarrassed he would've been when his manager said 'We need to have a bit of a talk.'

    And even if it is, how can you possibly get any kind of enjoyment from looking at pages at that rate of knots?

    OK, sounds like a fun day at work.. I get your point. ;)

    But every day? And for how many weeks/months? Surely you'd find a favourite page in all that time... bookmark it... come back to it?

    Did I make it sound fun? :eek: I was talking about becoming sexually jaded and getting a repetitive strain nerve injury :D

    With 10,000 hits/day, I would have to guess that a lot of those hits are multiple advertisements on a single page.

    At my computer at work, some advertisements are blocked and some aren't. Each one counts as its own webpage as far as our security program is concerned.
