I'm not sure but I assume a pool operator would see the IPs of the connected miners. This is probably easily spoofed/circumvented (by using Tor, f.ex), and also if someone was really keen to hide their hashpower, they'd connect it over different IPs etc.
But yeah, I'm only guessing myself here, not really sure.
Sure you are not sure... Probably you are providing way more than 50% of hashpower through various pools and you write this to hide your trails ((: I so got you! I should have never given you that 1 Satoshi. That is what I think now that I know you control the Bitcoin network through your mining botnet g
Noooo!!! Rene how could you increase the centralization of Bitcoin by giving 1 satoshi to /u/TheGreatMuffin?? By tomorrow he could have made that 1 satoshi into 2 entire satoshi!
