single same daily salt

[traceypooh]

thanks for this great code & setup! (been scouting for something like this (a bit dumbfoundedly for why so long!) for years...)

better than my C patching/hacking -- we love modules.

anyhoo... i've tweaked it to use a daily source (REST GET API) of a salt value so that 1000s of servers will all get the same anonymized IP address (which changes daily).

this is our current policy and preference at archive.org (i'm the main/longest tech there).

question/issue is - would you like to see/review the gist to see if interested in mainstreaming it?

entryway and suggestion would be optional ipscrub_salt_rest_source (or something like that). I've got it working with a simple http TCP/http fetch and am hoping to go live soon.

So it's kind of a question of "is it interesting to see/consider what we're up to - or is this just noise?" :)

thanks!
