I don’t know why people keep attributing privacy to Lemmy when ActivityPub is anything but.

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago (16 children)

Is ActivityPub logging which IP I post from? Is ActivityPub monitoring which communities I view? Is ActivityPub blocking me from browsing with my VPN on?

I got off lemmy.world because they block VPN connections. Not happening, under any circumstances. I don't trust anyone that much.

Is your IP passed on to other instances along with your post/comment?

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 months ago

Nope, that info stays on the home instance.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 0 points 2 months ago

No. ActivityPub does not share your IP with other instances.

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Trust them with what though? What are you posting?

[–] growingentropy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Did you just do the "if you don't have anything to hide, what's the big deal" move?

I want privacy. That's all.

I'm just saying that you're literally making posts and comments specifically to be heard. What's getting obscured here?

[–] growingentropy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, my ISP doesn't need to know anything about my posts. And the fediverse doesn't need to know who I am beyond "growingentropy," so...

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Ah yeah that makes sense.

Meanwhile I know lemmy instance that blocks most clearnet connections and can be accessed from tor and i2p
