There's also various others from random Corporation / Industries / Groups.

I've certainly never had anything like this on other newly launched websites before...

I guess this is illustrative of the sorts of people who browse Bitcointalk!? Grin

Homeland security... hmmmmmm.

FUll DISCLOSURE: Since I control the hosting of Bitcoin100, I could easily install one of those who's visiting me widgets, but opted to not do that on that site. Anybody who's capable of reading a webpage source code can verify that that's the case. I've also amassed a slew of email addresses via those who have registered and will not even consider using any of that information during my so-called train wreck investigations. I do know how to set up landing pages, and could easily put up a few related to Bitcoin, having a said tracking device in place to mine for info, but that would be too easy, choosing to continue my investigations the old fashion hard way--one fucked up link at a time.

well, there aren't many pastes yet so I'm pretty sure most came from these forums, though in these instances no referrer is even given. And they didn't visit any specific paste pages.

it's just funny, that's all.

Oh, and there's one visit from a very large investment management company Cheesy

The fact that there isn't any referrer header is consistent with links from this forum, which, apart from redirection topics, all open on new windows/tabs.
ORLY?
WTF, interesting tag I never knew about. Also really annoying.
It's useful for linking to another BitcoinTalk thread, because I hate it when Firefox has 20+ BitcoinTalk tabs open at any time. I've used it for a while for non-outgoing links, and nobody seems to have noticed.

Also, it's probably not necessary, but I've used it for links to an anchor too (just to make sure it doesn't break).

I don't think the new window/tab thing has any bearing on it, but no referrer is passed because bitcointalk.org is an https:// site and SSL disables referrers.

As being part of the United States Marine Corps, I know most computers that are connected to the  Navy/Marine Corps Intranet or nmic will show up with that being listed there all routed through there for security purposes. They could be in japan or where ever. Could be some Seaman or Marine just browsing along while there at work... Which happens 65% of the time when there aint shit to do lol.

Perhaps it is more of an indicative of the people who have been pointed to BitPasta pastes?
