I heard a similar story or possibly a different version of that story there was a shaila whether over stuffing fowl to fatten them caused a rupture in the esophagus rendering it a treifa. Both rabbonim agreed to put it to the test. They each had 10 fowl over fed for several months and then shechted them and had the esophagus submerged in water to see if bubbles come up indicating that there was a hole. By the posek who assurd it all 10 bubbled and by the meikel all 10 were good, showing that a tzaddik’s psak effects nature.
Getting back on topic, let your friend go back to that same rav that told her that internet is assur and ask if it’s muttar for someone else to do it for her, and if yes, why?
