I hate when some gay tumblr porn blogs gotta track where I live then show me on a little globe. It is kinda creepy and it kinda kills the mood a bit...
An IP can't find your exact location, without asking the provider, who can't tell you legally, so you will need the police, or a court order, or something else to do it legally.
If someone can hack into the provider, or physically break in, then they could. But really?
Its so irrelevant if someone knows your ip, unless you are running a server or something, but if you are, you should know how to protect it and i enjoy when someone tries to attack my server. The only real threat is a ddos attack, as its the most effective for how easy it is to pull off. But you can still protect yourself from that too and it only matters if you have a server running.
Now link me the porn blogs!
I've tried locating a few times my ip in various places and every time it was down to the city I was in.
The reason I am using tor is to prevent admins from outing my ip address. As you can see, some admins are very loose at their mouth, and I have no idea who is best buddies with what admins on kf. Even here, Luna has outed info/doxed someone when she was pissed off.
I've given enough other details about myself, I don't want to add a location as well.
I hate losing a game and being one upped or outsmarted. If I want to keep some info secret and that leaks, I take it as a personal fail.
Also, damage and harassment especially to people I care about can be done from far away as well.
