#44161 raised some concerns about if we missed any personal data when the
personal information export was released. Upon further investigation, the
core-privacy team found multiple places in the user_meta table that still
contains information that we should include in exports.
The currently known ones are the following:
- Session Tokens: Contains IP address and user agent
- Community Events: Contains IP address
The scope of this ticket isn't about removing/anonymizing this
information, instead just including it within the current user export and
erasure tools.
