How Effective Is a Randomized IP Address for Online Privacy and Security? or Does Using a Randomized

Depends on what you’re doing. For casual browsing? Sure, randomized IP addresses add a layer. For serious privacy? Nah.

Trackers use so much crap now—WebRTC leaks, DNS queries, even your fonts list.

If bans are your worry, look into residential proxies (like Smartproxy). They’re harder to detect than datacenter IPs.

Hey, thanks for all the insights! Didn’t realize how much other stuff (like fingerprints) could give me away even with IP switching.

Gonna try pairing a VPN with Privacy Badger and see how that goes.

Quick follow-up: Anyone know if randomized IP addresses work better on mobile vs desktop? Or is it the same risks either way?
