 > To quote [http://archives.seul.org/or/dev/Feb-2011/msg00004.html a
 recent message to or-dev], 'we're trying to only make use of data for
 statistics that we're giving out to everyone'.  This plan would contradict
 our practice of publishing summaries only of datasets that are themselves
 safe to publish.

 Yup, you're right.  I was just quoting phobos' idea here to split tickets.
 I see how using detailed data and not publishing it afterwards contradicts
 the stated principle.

 I'm also quoting arma here who has stated his concerns about phobos' idea
 in the other ticket.

 > Yeah, it does sound like phobos should open a new ticket under 'website'
 or maybe 'infrastructure' with a title like 'change our website logging
 format and data retention habits'. What we change it to will require quite
 a bit of discussion. I would be uncomfortable having IP addresses of every
 user for every service even for 24 hours. (I think EFF's recommendation is
 a really crappy compromise that they were forced to make because otherwise
 none of the huge datamining corporations would listen to them at all.)
