Hello,

What part is the issue is confusing you?

When someone uses `sunpy` to make a network call:  
[sunpy/parfive\_helpers.py at main · sunpy/sunpy · GitHub](https://github.com/sunpy/sunpy/blob/main/sunpy/util/parfive_helpers.py#L16) is added to each call.

The goal of the issue is to modify this when the tests make a network call so we can seperate users from our continuous integration tests. This would allow the services we use to tell us how many of the network calls they get are from humans.

Hopefully that helps.
