I think we all know that resolving an IP is relatively easy to do. However,
publishing your IP in a public forum is still not advisable, as it tends to
make you "stick out". Its sort of like standing up in a crowd of
pick-pockets and saying: "hey everyone, i'm over here...bet you can't steal
MY wallet".
