Do other people have your IP at one point? How common is this? or Do other people have your IP at one

thanks for all the replies, guys! didn’t realize how common it was for others to have my ip at one point.

i checked out whatsmyip and ipleak like some of u suggested, and yeah, it’s kinda wild how much is out there. gonna try out protonvpn’s free tier and see how it goes.

one more thing—does using a vpn slow down gaming? saw mixed stuff about that.
