Hello FD,
There appear to be multiple WordPress powered sites that are performing
an DB->XML dumb of the articles and subsequent pages. The comments
section includes originating IP address, datetime, E-Mail address,
homepage, etc. These entities are traditionally not exposed to the anonymous
Internet via WordPress. Since the XML dump is structured it's quite easy to harvest
this data.
More alarming is the volume of sites…
