In other news: ip packages hop from one host to another and a dozen hosts see the private ip and the websites IP. Certainly the website should have asked the user before exposing their ip on the route.
- perlgeek 5y agoThe difference here is that there's a technical necessity for the routers to see the IP.
- lixtra 5y agoNo, there are many ways around it (i.e. tor, vpn). The internet provider (or user) is just too lazy to provide proper privacy. Just like the website owner is too lazy to self-host the fonts. Edit: in fact PII should not pass unencrypted, so if you don’t protect the IP (classified as PII) then you‘re not compliant.
