I assume the technique used to detect the 'leaks' would be something like:
- operate authoritative dns for detector.tld
- create a client-specific ID
- have the client request something from client-specific-id.detector.tld
- log the origin of requests to resolve client-specific-id.detector.tld
- repeat with different ids until happy
- return the log results to the client
I wonder if there are significant malign use cases for this (outside of standard megacorp privacy invasion, I mean)?
