This approach to tamper with recently viewed items on Amazon embeds the articles as hidden images:

Of course, this only works if your browser accepts third-party cookies and is inspired by this original post: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3766544 .

Are the results any different from the original? Does using an image instead of an iframe have any effects on the results? What are your thoughts on this?
