Could someone please explain, for my own edification--as I have no idea--what exactly the ramifications of "IP logging" are.

IOW, when "tracking" is refered to in an above post, does that mean you can tell which topics a user is going to on FT, just on FT, or everywhere outside FT?

I'm not concerned about it, just curious exactly what it is and more so how and when it goes on on other sites and I'm not aware.

Thanks.
