Yawn. There are lots and lots of ways to expose a public facing IP address. My point is people should be using a VPN for this purpose. You’re on the iCloud relay. Good! No one considers that a “privacy” solution but realistically not everyone needs a logless VPN for random internet traffic.
You’re a jackass for being asked a specific question and then abusing lemmy’s DMs instead of answering. My question was clearly written with the knowledge that lemmy is different. You could also just run your own lemmy server.
