Is this IP lookup site showing too much info?
As I start to test and practice my newly learned techniques i’m encountering a few issues I’d greatly appreciate some help with, here is one:
Most forums about IP and also this section in the eb Stealth Book, establish that IP is a very general indication of ones geolocation and the book suggest to use an address that is at least within 100 miles.
And is true that sites such as: IPBurger.com, whatismyip.com and geobytes.com will supply general info and maybe your user agent and internet provider.
But checking my IP at whatismyipaddress.com/ all my info shows, even my real neighbourhood and zipcode, this site prides itself in providing the most accurate IP location out there.
I changed my IP using the Routers Mac Address trick and got a new IP with same accurate location, next day changed it back to the default Mac Add. and got another new IP with same issue.
This is a bit too close for comfort to me, taking into account that I was gonna use a relative’s address in a different borough and neighbourhood and that having the same zip code of my old suspended accounts probably will put my new accounts under scrutiny.
What do you guys think? Is there a way to change this? Please bear in mind that my problem is not eb, but another site that could be using this type of closer tracking.
