I wrote a small Heroku app a while back for viewing request headers: http://rocky-brook-3183.herokuapp.com/

Source for the site is here if you're interested: https://github.com/wyattjoh/HeadersCheck

Some of those headers are generated by the Heroku infrastructure

    > X-Forwarded-For
    > X-Forwarded-Proto
    > X-Forwarded-Port
    > X-Request-Start
    > X-Request-Id
    > Via

Plus

    > X-Request-Id

Are all Heroku-generated headers

Exactly. I wasn't sure at the time what the name for the Verizon headers was, so I just showed all of them.

That's interesting. I see

   "dnt": "1"

using Firefox, regardless of whether "tell sites I do not want to be tracked" is unchecked or unchecked.

Could be a bug in Firefox, since visiting your site with Safari doesn't send the header at all (which is how it's supposed to work).

Edit: Sorry about the noise. It's not your site, and it's not Firefox. NoScript took it upon itself to set this header!
