• “The WMF has dropped the technical distinction between core and non-core activities (no doubt greeted with relief by many entities who found these categories problematic).” →  :) Jean-Fred (talk) 07:19, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

PRISM

• The story on PRISM didn't seem to link to the foundation's response, which can be found at m:PRISM and also at WMFblog:/2013/06/14/prism-surveillance-wikimedia for those who wish to read it. 64.40.54.130 (talk) 04:06, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thank you for the link. The story didn't mention it because they published it after our story. :-) Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 04:53, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Is it true that the Foundation has recently switched from logging 1/1000th of all page view and search requests with IP addresses and usernames to logging 100%? It is difficult for me to follow the discussion (see also this thread), but I would like to know when this started (or is planned) and who approved it, and how many law enforcement requests for this data are processed per month, before and after the change.
