2010-09-08 Diskussionsfäden Pascal Gloor
Dear SwiNOGers, We are pleased to announce the first of its kind, "Special SwiNOG Event". Special SwiNOG Events are here to gather ISPs together with topics that would not fit into a "Classic" SwiNOG event. Either because the topic itself is a bit off the usual SwiNOG topics or because the SwiN

If IPs are protected information, so how is this handled in E-Mails, on mailing-lists like this and alike? Have messages to be stripped off IPs before they are delivered? Who's legally responsible for protecting the data? Just an example: Company X could scan all header information from SwiNOG-li

I think it's far too early to jump into conclusions right now. The court didn't even state it's reasons in detail.
