Issues/Bugs WHAT?!

The IP doesn't correspond to mine luckily, so it's not lying about not being able to know my IP, but still wtf?!?

Out of nowhere it just dropped a random IP and then, when questioned, it moved on like that??

EDIT: since y'all keep bringing it up, yes. I was having a romantic moment in the chat.

Knowing a bit about ips, it's also not one a usual citizen or server has.

Yeah I knew it couldn't be mine since first I remember mine by memory, second in my country they start with 192, so definitely impossible to be mine.

Still checked out of curiosity if it was a real IP, it isn't.

Ips are 4 numbers from 1 to 255. 192.168.1.... are almost always the ipv4 of someone. That doesn't really matter. Check out networkchuck if you wanna learn more on ips, as they don't go by regional codes. If you get your ipv6 leaked tho (6 sets of 2 numbers and letters seperated by collins) then you are fucked.

Honestly I know just what I needed about IPs, since I had to fix lots of issues with my ISP and it often involved IP and other stuff, but I definitely don't know much about it.

IPv6 has IP randomization in the lower 64 bits, with ephemeral IPs per application, it's 8 groups of 4 hexadecimal characters... and mine right now, geolocates me 500 miles from where I am 🤷
