Bit Squatting

[Robert]

Apologies if this has been discussed before but I found this quite interesting:

http://dinaburg.org/bitsquatting.html

During the logging period there were a total of 52,317 bitsquat requests from 12,949 unique IP addresses. When not counting 3 events that caused extraordinary amounts of traffic, an average of 59 unique IPs per day made HTTP requests to my 32 bitsquat domains. These requests were not typos or other manually entered URLs, and some show signs of several bit errors.
