Just a fun FYI: If you want to know what can be seen torrenting from your current IP, visit https://iknowwhatyoudownload.com
It wil show you anything publicly trackable and occasionally assign tags according to your habits. You can also check anybody else's IP you know of too, and look at what your IP-neighbors have on their name,...
Tags I've seen assigned are mostly 'Porn' if you torrent at least 1 known xxx and I even encountered a highlighted differently-colored tag twice in neigboring IP's that clearly state it's questionable content of subjects that did not go through the accepted minimum amount of birthdays yet.
Always an interesting tool to check when connected to a friend's wifi or a public shared one... 😅
The site lists 4 torrents and none of them are mine. I assume this is because my ISP assigned a dynamic IP address
Yeah, I have a 4G CGNAT router, so I'm not only constantly hopping IP's, I'm even sharing outside IPs with others simultaneously. I rarely see other torrents than mine, though it does happen. I honestly also had the bad content flag once for a file I certainly wouldn't download. 😅
That's a cool tool.
Gonna try it out, thanks for the recommendation.
