Yes but from my understanding one should not tell anybody about their IP as it is directly derived from a public key [0].
So in practice if you have doubts that your private key might have been compromised you must change your IP ASAP.
So I guess serious Yggdrasil users rely rather on a solid DNS system to manage identities and configure things. They actually need it more than the public internet !
This is the problem the blockchain & Ethereum people bumped into quickly: the 'key = identity' paradigm is elegant but in practice you need an abstraction on top to do anything serious.
I see they do have a DNS infrastructure in place [1] but most of the network services point to IP addresses, what really doesn't make sense to me.
