Then don't use it.
Or check the click-box. Which is what I did.
That said, your Internet-facing IP address isn't private. In fact, it has to be public in order to route traffic to/from you.
I'd note that the shodan.io site had information about my IP address, even though I'd never used it or requested a scan. What's more, I'm included in that database without any opportunity to opt out as the Mozilla site provides.
And just to be clear, I have no connection to Mozilla (or any of the other sites I mentioned). In fact, I'd never looked at Mozilla Observatory before I started poking around for the comment to which you replied and included it only because it had an SSH scanner.
