P3: Somewhat important Description
When trying to save the image on this page it fails with a "Access forbidden by the server", while it can be downloaded in Chromium without any issues.
The same happens when trying to do so via wget:
$ wget https://i.pximg.net/img-original/img/2017/06/09/13/35/15/63293446_p0.png --2017-06-10 19:44:38-- https://i.pximg.net/img-original/img/2017/06/09/13/35/15/63293446_p0.png Loaded CA certificate '/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt' Resolving i.pximg.net... 210.140.92.139, 210.140.92.134, 210.140.92.137, ...

but when setting the referer correctly, it works:
$ wget --referer="https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=63293446" https://i.pximg.net/img-original/img/2017/06/09/13/35/15/63293446_p0.png --2017-06-10 19:46:02-- https://i.pximg.net/img-original/img/2017/06/09/13/35/15/63293446_p0.png Loaded CA certificate '/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt' Resolving i.pximg.net... 210.140.92.139, 210.140.92.136, 210.140.92.138, ...

with mitmproxy, I can confirm no Referer is getting sent.
