Currently APIs such as the GMaps API are accessed directly by the user's browser. Obviously, this means that there's a chink in the anonymity armour as Google probably log the IPs that access their API.

To fix this I imagine using some sort of proxy (perhaps at nginx level?) to redirect the request to Google.
