Grade School Homework + Google + HTTP Referer = Entertainment

I see some strange stuff in HTTP Referers sometimes, but this is the best one of the week...by far. I hope this kid found the information he/she needed...seriously.


(Cick to Enlarge)

Want to control the information exposed by HTTP referers in Firefox?

You can configure Firefox to block the referer by going to about:config, and changing the value of network.http.sendRefererHeader to 0.

Be aware tho, that some high-security sites use the HTTP Referer to control application logic flow...thus the sites will not work properly with this setting (banks, etc.).
