        Please make sure that this is not on by default; it might
        also be worth adding a caveat to check on communications
        privacy legislation, as some interpretations of recent
        European directives would suggest that such data should not
        be collected by a service provider (generalising from telephony)
        unless strictly needed for operation and that any such data that
        is collected should be "de-personalised" at the earliest possible
        time.

        See http://europa.eu.int/eur-lex/en/lif/dat/1997/en_397L0066.html
        for the European position on this sort of information in voice
        telephony.
