Not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this - consider it a small warning.
I've noticed a number of hits on my website coming from google, where the search term is "powered by getsimple"
This is the default tag on (most?) themes.
I've since removed this line from my site, since the only two reasons I can imagine someone searching for this phrase is to audit for popularity of the CMS (which wouldn't need to click through to my site) or to locate GS sites in order to target a vulnerability.
Just a warning to you all to keep an eye on any suspicious activities, especially if you see that phrase in your keyword referrals.
