The problem is that we have static mirrors. The ads needs to rotate dynamically though,
so (I presume) ads.postgresql.org sends an image and a cookie. When someone clicks
on the link, it uses the cookie to know which image they clicked on. So, sessions
would not help. There are some more advanced tricks that could work (e.g. AJAX) but
probably overkill. Although ads.postgresql.org could in theory also track the IPs
that they send the image too and try and match that way if the cookie was not
found. That should fix it 99% of the time, I would think.
