Didn't know about AnchorFree. I don't know how can the advertisers
distinguish between impressions/clicks from different users if they
have the same IP. They have to trust that they are not one AnchorFree
employee refreshing the page with a script that changes the user
agent.

In our case, it would be difficult for Tor to build that trust because
it will depend on each exit node.
Quick question: can middle nodes modify traffic? If thats the case we
have a bigger problem.
