This will be contested as unconstitutional, but in cases it
will become law all Tor operators are required by law to start
logging 20090101. Similiar applies to the entire EU, but the
dates and details might differ.
The details indeed does differ :-)
In Denmark, the implementation of the EU-directive (which is called
'logningsbekendtgørelsen') is not bad news for Tor-operators.
If you have a Tor-server in Denmark, you don't have to log *anything*!
I have this in writing (from something called IT- og Telestyrelsen), if
anybody is interested.
Regarding to the danish 'version' of Vorratsdatenspeicherung
('logningsbekendtgørelsen'), you only have to log data, that you /know/.
That means, if you eg. have an open access point, then normally you do
not know which physical persons have a specific IP-address, and
therefore you do not have to log that.
If you are non-commercial (eg. Tor-operaters normally are), then you do
not have to log *anything*. That means a private open access point does
not have to be register anything.
So if you want to host a Tor-server somewhere in Denmark, feel free to
contact me by e-mail if i can be at any help.
