And where do you see IP address in that big list of things to consider?
And how does the IP address (unlesss coupled with other data) identify you personally (as opposed to your PC or company network)? Hint: it doesn’t.
Also: if the IP you send to everyone on the internet is “your” personal, private data, who owns that data when your DHCP lease expires and someone else gets it? See how that doesn’t work? At all? Good good.
Yeah that IP address, unless coupled with other data, says nothing about you personally. I thought this much would be blatantly obvious to anyone even remotely competent on a techie site like HN.
In short: it doesn’t work that way which you hysterical anti-GDPR fanatics are mindlessly repeating.
If so, we’d have to shut down the entire internet and ban all server logs.
