The proper analog is "Call Trace". You dial a * code, and the calling number gets recorded by the telco, but it can only be retrieved via a LE process (I do not believe it requires a full search warrant, but, joe-blow citizen certainly can't get it). It cannot be disabled (but presumably spoofable) by the caller. > I am not a lawyer, but I believe IP addresses are considered personal > data in some countries; the European Court of Justice is currently > looking into the issue.

What's also possible that when presented in its entirety, a court may still agree that the operational/other benefits of providing them in this case outweighs the potential risk. Nothing is an absolute. There are always edge cases where informed judgment is required, and you rely on courts and judges to provide guidance through precedent. What I also know is that when asked, regulators over here in PIPEDA land are most emphatic in saying that IP addresses are not PII. And this _includes_ the Privacy Commissioner. > Or perhaps one of the many tracking companies is already using this to > correlate emails sent to website visits.

That's in part why we have governments - to prevent public panics of the uninformed driving public policy. We had one when callerid happened. Callerid got "fixed" not killed. We had one when the newspaper stories about the leaks (that ultimately led to the Commission I was a member of). They were (mostly) bogus. But we fixed the problems that were really there and weren't in the newspaper stories. We have a panic _now_. How would you feel about security/privacy policy being driven by Trump and his followers? If that doesn't scare you, it should. What would really be fascinating is to get one or more people highly respected in their knowledge of the law, public policy and privacy to take on the question of passing through SUBMIT addresses. Bring out all the pros and cons. Put it on trial as it were. > I do think the proposed charter is a bit too strong on the need to > remove headers which, given comments here, probably isn't very helpful. > I would be in favour of a more open-minded charter, but I do think there > is a need for a WG like this one. I agree, but the WG charter is too strong on the mechanics of "how" and has nothing at all on the mechanics of "will it do anything?" and the real downsides. The charter needs to be expanded, and the WG work begun. Perhaps one of the most important things in the WG is to decide whether the output is a document, and whether the document is an informational, a BCP or standard or STD. My current thinking is that we're going to hit BCP at best. An alternate approach occured to me - rather than trying to defacto impose it everywhere (which is sorta what the existing documentation is pushing towards), what about some sort of informational/BCP or even full RFC defining a "privacy enhanced interface" and outline what it needs to do w.r.t. email, and other service privacy? Existing environments could make it an option, makes an opportunity for niche providers, and describes in concrete terms what it needs to do?
