> the case reference I gave you.

Says:

a dynamic IP address registered by an online media services provider when a person accesses a website that the provider makes accessible to the public constitutes personal data within the meaning of that provision, in relation to that provider, where the latter has the legal means which enable it to identify the data subject with additional data which the internet service provider has about that person.

if you're not the Internet Service Provider, or more broadly, that you don't have "legal means which enable [you] to identify the data subject with additional data" then the ruling doesn't mean what you claim it says.

You're being intellectually dishonest by trying to tie irrelevant sources of information. That the high german court took a broader look than the European court is irrelevant.

> their DPA tool treats them as such

It says, as I've agreed, that an IP Address could be personal information. You've also agreed this position. The ICO does not consider IP addresses [by themselves] personal information.

What exactly are you still responding to?
