I suppose the rule of thumb to do with privacy and ip's, is really if you want to exploit the information based on the individual user, or if you just want it for general stats. Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how YouTube does their statistics on videos? Ie, amount of users, how many users per country etc.
Hey bernie, could you please start a new thread (the youtube thing)...
Thanks, Keyboard1333
Since it's a straightforward answer (unless it needs a longer discussion for some reason) I'll just answer here: I assume it's GeoIP or something similar (Google might have something proprietary).
I've said a few times that it doesn't need to be just generic stats if you follow a few guidelines.
alright, ill have a look at GeoIP
