"Spatial Profiling" is when airlines or for that matter any other industry, company, entity, individual discriminates someone on the basis of their weight.

Internet service providings

The satirical term mocking the annoying cold caller telesales people and companies involved who outsource western based companies call centres to India as a money saving practice.

These call centres will often ring you up uninvited and attempt to sell you a product, such as an internet service even though they don't have a firm grasp of the English language.

The phrase can also be attributed to the UK television show Fonejacker, who impersonates such a person as a prank caller.
