It's sounds like this is describing the stub attribution feature. You can read more details at

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Stub_Attribution

I read over the article's links now and what I said service wasn't quite right. This looks like it's based on the stub attribution technique but expands it beyond what those links describe. You can see the server side of the implementation at the links below

You'll see references to bouncer as well, which is https://github.com/mozilla-services/go-bouncer
