Which is relatively easy when you’ve written the software stack powering the recipe site, or can at least grok its source (if available). It may not A) be clear to the operator of a recipe site that their stack is logging IPs and B) be reasonably straightforward for the owner of a recipe site to stop their software from doing so. Some things are very deliberate, but others are the consequence of decisions far removed from those of site operators.
