actually I think you'd be wrong, you don't have to be time shifted by very much to switch from streaming in the office to streaming at home, and then you get laptops versus desktops. if you sit in one location the whole time then yeah the external ip address on your nat box is probably stable. > One could look at coordinating the voice session with any simultaneous > login to the datatracker. It has been our practice to minimize the amount of date we collect, and not associate it with other datasets that would result in being able to uniquely identify individuals. 2 months worth of hand-wringing discussion on the IETF list suggests that we were justified in exercising our fiduciary responsibility in that fashion. listener's can't contribute to the discourse except through some other channel and don't sign the bluesheets. and since there's an archive however poor it is they may well be timeshifted by days, hours, or years. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
