It garbles advertisers’ data as a result, but you must disable uBlock Origin to run it; they can’t work simultaneously. I recently moved to it and, so far, am never looking back!

    I don’t know about NZ (or wherever you are), but IP addresses for residential access in the US don’t really change all that much. It’s… concerning.

      I thought the average was 7 days for a residential IP and when I searched it up it seemed like the average was 3 days. However I took note of my ip and its still the same as it was 6 days ago. Im now interested to see how long these ips are being leased out for.

      If it is longer than a week then I am fully wrong and spamming out your ip is a huge privacy risk.

        With most fixed residential users having their modems on 24/7, there’s more incentive to simply keep renewing the lease. Why would you risk potential service disruption to your clients?
