This is not correct! I have to repeat myself: There will be no general  
traffic logging at hosters! The data retention only records the  
information who used which "identifier" at which time. For access  
networks this is which dynamic IP address a customer used at a certain  
time. There will be no IP packet or TCP connection logging (at least  
not because of the data retention law)!
