Counter-point: if your business is selling digital or physical product into New Zealand the NZ tax department requires you to collect two different types of data for the transaction that prove the customer is located in NZ. This can include IP address, phone number, address.

So, in some instances, Stripe is legally required to collect some of this data.

How does an IP address (in a world with VPN) or a phone number (which is likely to be mobile and could be located anywhere in the world) "prove that the customer is located in NZ"?
