I’m sure laws differs between countries, but isn’t there a law in Europe that forces you to log IP for eventual police investigation ?
It was true some years ago in France (a law from 2011 says you must keep 1 year of logs for user posting content on your website [1]), and it’s the big question I am asking myself for several months with GPRD comming.
Everyone I ask had its own way of seeing it and I’m confused.

Edit: found the law
- badrabbit 9y agoIn some countries in europe (e.g.: Germany) they are pretty strict against maintaining logs that associate employee web traffic with the employee. Plus,GDPR will introduce some concerns like you mentioned. For that law you referenced,I am not sure it would apply for a network provider as it would for a site-owner (e.g.: VPN or CDN provider vs a website)
