Context has nothing to do with it. IP addresses are specifically called out in the GDPR as being one type of personal data. The fact that you're repeatedly using "PII", an American term, indicates that you are viewing this from an American point of view.
- rglullis 4y agoOk, it was my mistake to call it PII. My intent was to make a distinction between user data that is collected and that needs to be be given consent from the user to be processed by the service you are connecting to, and the further point is that no service is required by GDPR to ask the user "is it okay to log the IP from your request?" and that is the part that I am saying is context-dependent.
- ThePowerOfFuet 4y agoAgain, it is not context-dependent. I suggest you educate yourself further on the GDPR, specifically the six legal bases upon which processing can occur.
- rglullis 4y agoThe "six legal bases which processing can occur" ARE the context that I am talking about. I suggest you let go with the pedantic posturing, and if you really think that GDPR has any way to actually stop these new actions from the EU telcos, go ahead and initiate legal action against them.
