Scharr reportedly told a European Parliament hearing on online data protection that when someone is identified by an IP, or Internet protocol, address "then it has to be regarded as personal data." Though search engines like Google do not hold the same opinion. Google has been insisting an IP address merely identifies the location of a computer, not who the individual user is.
