What exactly is an IP?
What your connection and IP can reveal
Think of your IP address as a digital home location. Websites see it when you visit, allowing them to pinpoint your internet provider and approximate physical location.
Websites gather more than just your IP
Through browser fingerprinting, sites can also track your operating system, screen size, language preferences, and browser type.
Is it possible to mask your location by changing your IP?
Absolutely, a VPN does exactly that. By connecting to a VPN server, sites will see the server's IP instead of yours, effectively shielding your real location and identity.

What are the different kinds of IP addresses?
IPv4 vs IPv6
IPv4 relies on a 32-bit format (like 192.168.1.1), whereas IPv6 utilizes 128 bits (such as 2001:0db8::1). IPv6 was introduced to accommodate the massive influx of modern internet devices.
Public IP addresses
A public IP is provided by your ISP and is exposed to the entire internet, which means it can be used to estimate your geographic whereabouts.
Dynamic IPs
The majority of residential connections use dynamic IPs. This means your provider gives you a slightly different IP address periodically or whenever you restart your router.
Private IPs
Private addresses (like 192.168.x.x) are strictly for internal local networks and remain completely invisible to the outside internet.
