FYI the Fork got hidden/deleted in the last minute or so -- did anyone manage to clone it before it disappeared?

I did. It's essentially just a single .py file: https://gist.github.com/whalesalad/06804fd734efe6bd2e0c84906...

    x_forwarded_for = headers.get("X-Forwarded-For")
    if x_forwarded_for is None:
        x_forwarded_for = ipaddress.IPv4Address._string_from_ip_int(
            randint(0, MAX_IPV4)
        )

lol
