MoneroUserIdentifier

When your monero wallet sends a transaction, it doesn't obfuscate your IP. Here are the IP's being scraped real time.

@fluffypony any comments about @monerocurrency windows wallet leaking DNS queries? #DNSLeak https://t.co/ZJz8uEBW1P

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @TopHatCyber @monerocurrency Well thank you for responding and not denying that the wallet does this. Hopefully in your next release this can be addressed as well. I would say it would be very easy for the US gov to correlate wallets in this manner over the other ip leakage

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @monerocurrency True but monerod also has DNS queries for seed.moneroseeds which would be easy to see. So if they're not running a monero node, like you said earlier was the most common configuration, then it would be clear they have a wallet running.

@fluffypony @TopHatCyber @monerocurrency VPNs don't inherently protect you against DNS leakage https://t.co/jsuZScrX46 " despite the use of a VPN service to attempt to conceal them"

@fluffypony @TopHatCyber @monerocurrency VPNs don't protect you inherently from DNS leakage

@dzcrypto @fluffypony @monerocurrency 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

@TopHatCyber @fluffypony @monerocurrency It's not just ISP's. The United States Government is notorious for catching people via DNS Leaked IPs

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @monerocurrency DNS Leak == Your IP Being logged by the DNS Server and correlating it to that URL. If that url is ONLY ever requested by a monero wallet then your ip + that url == user with a wallet https://t.co/c5zxO5Nj68

It's good to see @monerocurrency make a video that is very open and educates users on the dangers of IP leakage. https://t.co/oKqXEfwypZ

@blbtheman @fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt From an info sec stand point idc your color, coin or gender. I just want users to be safe. As long as we all push toward that goal 👍

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@CryptoCurrFreak lol

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt Thanks for sharing. I'll check it out after work.

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt It IS a security risk though and should be highlighted to users.

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt Yeah then I didn't make that clear enough. The risk is to users who run local nodes and broadcast from them.

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt Maybe you can explain what I'm misinterpreting

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony @3a5b2f83c83852 @jdebunt Well that highlight isn't wrong lmao. If you join the p2p network and don't obfuscate your ip, you ARE broadcasting your location...

[MoneroUserIdentifier @moneroident]

@fluffypony I made this clear both on the github and in my blog btw
