"This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate

I cannot access news.eclipse.org since the censorship request of Mr. Mike
Milinkovich (ex-IBM, Eclipse Foundation Director).
Using data to identify my person or my ISP-region to block my access (or
the regions access) to the eclipse foundations resources is a
DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE ECLIPSE FOUNDATIONS PRIVACY POLICY
I ask you to stop this violation and enable immediatly my access to the
eclipse news-server via nntp.

I ask Mr. Mike Milinkovich to make a statement about this
privacy-policy-violation complaint.
-
Does this community realize, what "abuse of power" and "violation of
privacy policy" means?
Does this community realize, that I'm since nealy _two_ weeks blocked
within this medium (without having violated _any_ rules of this media)?
Does this community understand that the Eclipse Foundation Director (and
the community itself) has given me the right to post usenet threads like
this?:

Possibly.
He seems to be unable to decouple.

You don't see many things.

Maybe so. What I do see clearly, however, is that you have made numerous
bold charges about violations of the Eclipse privacy policy in a number of
different forums and that you can't (or won't?) back those charges up. While
I could actually care less about whether you are banished from this
newsgroup or not, the actual banishment itself does not appear to have been
a breach of the Eclipse privacy policy at all.
Your name, your e-mail address and your IP address are all public
information readily available to anyone with a browser. Using your IP
address to block your access to the newsgroup, therefore, is not a violation
of the privacy policy.
Note that I am expressly not commenting on whether banning you from the
newsgroup is good or bad. I am only pointing out that it does not constitute
a violation of the privacy policy as you have charged.

please reread my initial message.
I'm not willing to analyze this deeper for you.
[Still awaiting an official response]

So, lets wait for the official comment.

Like it was with the IP-blocking?

Your "No-IP-blocking" try was at least funny.
