I disagree. We've been helping the German "Toll Collect" system (as discussed in this thread as well) setting up and implementing their data privacy concept. This concept requires Toll Collect to delete almost any data after a certain (quite short, actually) amount of time. Even with disk prices falling they save lots and lots of money (even compared to what we charged them for telling them... :-) ).
