44:57: it definitely has machine identifiable information (i.e. hostname, processor, RAM, etc) in the bug reporting logs, because it is grabbing kernel logs from boot up and such. So it might or might not have PII (Personal Identifiable Information), but it really depends on what your applications push out to logs.
