Keep being sent porn emails

Hi all,
If my husband was looking at porn sites, adult sites, girls, whatever, on the computer or his phone using our home wifi, does that mean that I would start getting emails connected to this subject on my iPad? It only happens when I am on the home Wifi or if he has been on the computer for a while. If he hasn’t been on, I don’t get them.
He also gets up very early every morning long before I’m awake and I suspect he uses YouTube for this on our tv. Help!

No I don’t think so. Everyone gets porn spam emails. I’ve gotten them for 20 years, no matter who I’ve lived with. It sounds like an issue with your spam filter.

Also there is no porn on YouTube.

Put the parental controls on through the router that will put a stop to him

As pp says, I've had these in my spam inbox since forever and I've definitely never shown an interest in penis enlargement.

Odd, I've never got any porn emails, but then I haven't lived with a man for years, I therefore think people who do, and live with a man, are likely swallowing a line or being hopeful that it's just one of those things. They have to have obtained your email somehow Hmm

gmx have changed their spam settings a couple of months ago.
Now I get interesting offers for penis enlargements, viagra, desparate Russian females, gambling companies etc. being an elderly female I do not search for that stuff.

Your e-mail adress is a commodity.

I clicked on a link to a dress on MN and now they sent me a Boden catalouge.

We all sign our emails away when we don't read smallprint.

I have always had porn emails, for 20 years.

You need to sort out your filter. Doesn't mean at all that anyone is watching porn.

There's loads of Russian women nearby desperate for my penis.
And plenty of opportunities to have it enlarged if I want.
Not to mention the millions I've got waiting for me from banks in Nigeria

Eh? Living with men and being fed a line? I received porn emails long before my first serious relationship.

Spam filter issue, everyone gets these kind of emails but generally they go to spam.

Doesnt mean anyone has been watching porn on your device.

Lol! What on earth are you going on about. These kind of emails are very common, but like others say, usually they go into the spam folder.

I think people's experiences here differ so much because it varies by ISP. Some filter out spam emails much more assiduously than others and they don't even go to your spam folder, you just don't get them at all. I almost never get them.

Have had lots of Russians ready for my cock.. 🤨
I may have misunderstood though as I read it as op is annoyed OH is watching porn.
Op if its what you call your deal breaker fair enough. But it's perfectly normal for men and women to access porn.

Why would a porn addicted man put his DW/GFs email address into a porn site if he is attempting to keep his addiction a secret?
