What can a site log?

[Jxhn]

They can also log the refer to see which website you've come from.

The only thing I know of which is literally impossible to withhold is an IP address.

Proxy? VPN? IP spoofing?

Refered website aren't always true, and has to be clicked/iframe visit, etc to be a refered website

Mac address?

Mac address?

Yes, they can log mac addresses.. but that is not avaliable through PHP, you can get it through Shockwave, Java, and I believe Flash might have the ability.

It would be good if we could log there mac address via PHP, would make banning so much easier

[Dentafrice]

It's wayyy easier to spoof a MAC address then it is an IP address.

True

It's easy to use a proxy. IP spoofing is only a one way thing anway, which is why it's usually only used for DoSing.

[Calon]

But..

They'd not realise they we're banned via MAC.
