If I were to test a large batch of ASICs with that magnitude of hashrate, I would solo mine with a few different addresses so in lists like that it would just be attributed to "Unknown" and the addresses would be different.

Blockorigin usually reports about 12% of blocks found are unknown. This has been pretty consistent for months.

for now yes. if one of ASIC companies will mining solo + tor / proxy has no way to find out which company increases the difficulty. right ?

ASIC mining through TOR?

Yeah, that would work well, suuuuure...

It would work well. An ASIC miner would mine solo, so the numerous getwork RPC calls per second would not get routed over TOR. He could even connect to only one peer-to-peer node over TOR to further reduce traffic.
