 @d23fc1b0 is this something that has happened because of web analytics as a business to business service? Info that perhaps used to be avaiable to all has been shanghaied? 
 @13d743bf -- i don't know 
 @d23fc1b0 but the question behind the question is, if someone is providing some information to a ‘webmaster’ where there links, their referrals are coming from, how are they culling that info? From IP addresses? The back side has been abstracted away for many, who had a better idea 30 years back of view provenance.
