It might be possible their browser has a "look ahead" feature that excessively pre-fetches data for fast load times. And every letter they type creates a new page they might visit, that is pre-fetched to be cached. They're also using a version of firefox that is 10 versions old though... maybe it's a bug/feature of that version of firefox, or a plugin

Nice man! I didn't catch that ancient version of FF at all. Browsers do pre-fetch sometimes, I like this theory.

Funny. That's the only thing that stood out for me. I'm currently on the latest WaterFox. I've also found this security problem in Pale Moon and Brave. Falkon crashes when a mouse in the next town farts. I use the crude Basilisk rarely. I don't think I've visited SaidIt since leaving Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and Vivaldi.
