What's that icon mean ?

Hi t-4-2,

Where did you see that icon? It looks like a link in a chain, so it could be a link to something, but what I don't know. I seem to have seen that before as well, but I cannot for the life of me remember where.

Hello all,

I just got it myself, but I have no idea.
When I see it again I am going to point at it to see if it says anything.
