There are some things you can’t hide for the internet to work, such as IP addresses, so an IP address on it’s own is not privileged information. Announcing to the world that “this is my IP address” adds information and context which from a privacy perspective is privileged. If someone has an issue with you, they might target their focus to seeing if there’s a service running which is vulnerable at your IP, or they could initiate a DDoS against you.

It’s a public IPv4 address in the picture.

There are 3 ranges of IPv4 addresses which are reserved for private use:

24-bit block 10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255 20-bit block 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255 16-bit block 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255

We have found the location of a Rebel base! It’s in Seattle, Washington.

To shreds you say? How are the investors holding up?

It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you.
