What if they leave an anonymous tip that you’re distributing CSAM?
With just an IP? Then the system is broken. Because an IP is often easy to get, and everything that directly connects to you needs your IP, unless you use a VPN I guess.
Every website knows your IP. Every internet application knows your IP. Everyone in a peer-to-to-peer network knows your IP. It’s not a secret, it’s just your internet address. It is designed to be known.
