These logs will be stored for a year.

The Data Protection Authority said this amounts to mass .

The police prosecutor disagrees, saying that no personal data is stored. It's not logging traffic. it's logging who is the registered owner for an IP address at a given point.

The police want this data to prosecute people for CSEM.
