Won't sell != Won't collect

Never log IP != Never log anything

Bonus: The way other companies identify you ~= There are other ways

Edit: Looks like many people assume I'm nitpicking. So here are more specific questions:

* Is logging a hashcode of the IP considered as "not logging the IP"?

* Can combination of timestamp, packet info other than end IP (latency, hops, etc), geoIP and other factors be used for deep intelligence?

Well, the post sort of implies that they log everything for 24 hours, but instead of raw IP addresses they log hashed ones, as they still need to identify everyone. Which, sadly, doesn't affect tracking practices at all.
