To whom it may concern.

Since this summer, Italian legislation requires carriers and ISPs to 
retain traffic LOGs at least for four years, therefore anticipating 
and exceeding EU rules.

On the practical side, especially smaller ISPs are moaning about 
investments required to comply (while storage vendors are quite 
happy...).
