I don't think there were any improvements in the actually passed law, though. 2. The IP is not "the only thing which is logged". Besides telephone and SMS/MMS connections the following is logged: - for internet connections (i. e. dial-in or equivalent): - IP number - connecting user (i. e. the calling phone number, ppp userid or equivalent) - Timestamp - for email - sender and recipient address of every email (logged on sending as well as receiving servers) - IP address(es) accessing a mailbox - timestamps for both of the above - for anonymizing services (!): - original and anonymized identifiers (e. g. IP or email address) - timestamps So much for "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit".
