Since April, major Internet platforms such as Weibo, xiaohongshu and Zhihu have successively launched the IP territorial function. When commenting on others or posting their own documents, netizens have an IP territorial suffix, which is specifically displayed to the province. The author believes that this is a good function, which can make many network jets converge. But some netizens believe that this is divulging their privacy and worried that others can locate themselves. But in fact, this is a confusion between IP address and IP territory.

01 IP territory is not an IP address, and you will not be accurately located after it is published**

IP refers to internet protocol, that is, internet protocol. IP address is the internet protocol address. For example, 159.226.1.1, IP territory can be said to be the home of IP address. Using some technical means, we can accurately find the specific location of users along the IP address. The granularity of IP territorial information is not enough to be directly pushed to individual specific identity through provinces, and the recognition rate is relatively weak. Moreover, the IP territory information points to the location of the network access equipment rather than the location of people, so the majority of netizens do not need to worry that IP territory will increase the risk.

Display IP possession

02 is the IP possession related to the mobile phone number**

The author is in Beijing and uses the mobile phone card of Harbin, but the IP possession on the social platform is still displayed in Beijing. This is because IP territory is the ownership of IP, not the ownership of mobile phone number. It has nothing to do with the ownership of mobile phone number, but with IP address.

Not everyone has an IP address, because IPv4 is still widely used. This protocol can only provide the 32nd power of 2, that is, about 4.29 billion IP addresses, which is not enough for everyone in the world. Therefore, the IP address you use is allocated by the operator. For example, when you are at home, you use the IP address assigned to your broadband. When you arrive at the company, you use the IP address used by the company. When you go to other provinces on business, you use the IP address of other provinces. At this time, the IP territory will also change.

Can I change my possession ? How**

As soon as this function comes out, many bloggers and big V show their original shape. Many bloggers say that the IP possessions of foreign bloggers are displayed in China. Some big V just sent "people just got off the plane in the United States" on their front feet, and the IP display on their back feet is in China, which is really embarrassing for him.

At present, this IP dependency does not support closure, so some people use their brains and start a gray industry on the Internet. Now on the e-commerce platform, there are many services to change the IP territory, which can be changed at home and abroad.

Change IP dependency service

In fact, the principle of changing IP ownership is very simple, that is, let your data flow through the proxy server, the server remember your IP address, then change your IP address into the IP address of the proxy server, and finally send it back to the network platform you use. At this time, your IP ownership is successfully modified.

04 there is a risk of changing the IP territory, which may lead to the seal**

The proxy platform cannot only serve one user. If the social networking platform finds that many users come here with an IP address, it will judge this IP address as an abnormal IP address. The social platform may directly block or blacklist this IP address, and the accounts using these IP addresses may be blocked.

Moreover, there is a very high probability that criminals will use this way to carry out identity fraud, resulting in problems such as number theft, privacy disclosure and financial account theft. Therefore, it is best not to use these so-called services to change IP territory.

After the gradual development of social networking platforms, the problems of online violence, false information and rumors are becoming more and more serious. After using the technical means of displaying IP territory, keyboard man may converge, hoping that the network environment will become more harmonious and pure in the future.
