Remove ability to log (using open source) 2007-08-21

As ridiculous as this ruling is, there (appears to be) one way to get around it: modify the source code of the web server (and other tools) in order to remove the logging capability altogether - or to otherwise ignore any loggable identifying information.

This should not be necessary, but if a scary ruling like this remains, it will become necessary - and such modifications could enhance privacy of users and reduce liability of the corporation.
