    An IP isn’t private. It is literally your network’s public ID. If you want to hide it you use a proxy, not relying on big brother corporations.

    Also, sharing your IP is somehow okay if it is with Microsoft who absolutely sell your info to data hoarders and advertisement companies, but not whoever you’re chatting with? If anything, using p2p is more private because then you ONLY share the IP with the recipient.
