actually no. The EU Article 29 Data Protection Working Party issued a controversial opinion a couple of years ago that IP address data in combination with an accurate timestamp constituted PII, but that IP addresses on their own did not. This opinion has been roundly rejected by several EU courts; for example see paragraph 12 of emi vs eircom in the irish high court (http://goo.gl/96xUY). Nick
