Do you keep access logs? How long do you keep them?

I imagine that if you ever got a request, you'd understandably just give in and hand out the data. Have you thought of a canary?

Thanks for all your work!

Dunno if fediverse instances would be willing to get a lawyer to fight such requests. IMO, the best way to counter it is not collect such data in the first place, but you make a good point about bots. Honestly, I'm just curious what the maintainers will say. I might just start interacting with the fediverse over TOR and be done with it.
