Does my ISP know which Distro I'm using?
by derezion from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53YSP)
Curiosity: I know websites and ISPs can determine what browser and OS you're using but do they know which flavor of that OS like Lubuntu, Kubuntu?
I ask because the process to activate my modem went through without a hitch in Ubuntu but didn't work in Bodhi Linux. It could have been because I wasn't using Firefox in Bodhi.
I'm using Bodhi Linux and my ISP is Comcast Xfinity by the way.
