This explanation isn't clear to me.

Let me describe an application for web site recognition. Suppose that we want to know what everyone is doing with the web at starbuck. We can use wireshark or other programs to sniff all the packets. By grouping all the secondary connections with the primary one, then we would be able to get a much easier picture of user's primary activities.

Is this talking about being able to recognize which websites each of the laptops are connecting to?
