I find logging everything without warning to be rather immoral.  In my
country it would most likely be a crime.  Respecting players privacy
is for me an unbreakable rule.  In a commercial system this should be
paramount.

(A nasty sideeffect is that rumours about admins snooping on players
is likely to wreck player loyalty)
