Well, it could affect the equipment required, floor space, real  
estate cost, log retention, bandwidth requirements, equipment  
addressing, procedures, training, trouble desk, employee count and,  
probably, more.  So, I would think it would affect network  
operations. I would suggest that it is on topic. There are business  
and legal hazards along with the technical hazards.  Compliance with  
differing data privacy and retention laws are not the least of these.
