Reading the Privacy policy I dont see this would violate the policy as it
specifically doesnt record private data(ip, username), in my reading of
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Privacy_policy#Purpose_of_the_collection_of_…
policy specifically says "
*The Foundation limits the collection of personally identifiable user data
to purposes which serve the well-being of its projects...*." then includes
some examples like public accountability of the projects, and site
statistics(raw data is not made public). This the tool appears to be within
those bounds of the privacy policy.

Hi all,
as promised on the meeting, I wrote a small JavaScript/Toolserver
setup that can log clicks on Commons leading to external pages.
I believe this would be a violation of Wikimedia's privacy policy.
