 Replying to [comment:2 teor]:

 > sbws doesn't guarantee any anonymity, and discovering rogue scanners is
 more important than the risk of malicious servers using the IP address.

 Thinking more this, i'm not totally convinced. If we find rogue scanners,
 are we going to try to contact them?.
 I'm also not sure if that might be a problem on the server side due data
 privacy laws.
 What about creating a random unique identifier the first time that it's
 saved locally so the scanner can always send the same?.
