As far as I'm aware/recall, European privacy laws consider any connection back to a telemetry server to count as "collecting" IP addresses, since the telemetry server learns it (even if they pinky swear not to write it down.)

You don't recall perfectly well.

Storing IP addresses in logs means that you are now responsible for them, yes. Drop them out of your logs, and you're perfectly fine.

I think privacy laws only apply to things that “process” PII. Accepting a network connection is not, in and of itself, considered to process PII.

Can you send telemetry data through Tor, though? :thinking:
