i thought he was saying it like an apartment building where networking displays your unit number and location. maybe he forgot the point because it’s both odd and not very helpful. a phone number would be a better comparison, plus dynamic IPs have more problems.

The issue I face is that most individuals are used to full phone numbers. I don’t believe removing the area code is common unless you’re far from populated areas and expecting outside contact. People usually only encounter street-level details occasionally, like apartment or suite numbers. That’s why I think this analogy fits better when discussing revealing your public IP address. Still, I acknowledge the gap between the comparison and reality was abrupt in my post.
