Is a user's IP address personally identifiable information (PII)?
If IP addresses are personally identifiable (often are), then almost all websites collect 'PII', and even send it to 3rd parties like google analytics.
(The @internetarchive takes measures to not collect IP addresses for this reason, but we are an exception)
If IP addresses are PII, then many many well meaning websites are not accurate in their privacy policies. For instance: https://www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/#/
What should we do?
