Connect to your VPN before opening peertube.
Why?
Genuine question. I haven't really used peertube.
Your IP gets exposed to others since it has a p2p feature to share the bandwidth of the video with others.
Makes sense, thanks
That's true for a lot of services. Your IP address doesn't really matter much. P2P is way better for performance.
What are people going to do with your IP? The worst they can do is do a Geo lookup. However it doesn't matter.
Probably because you don't want your IP address to be associated with some of stuff on there.
Why? You aren't committing a crime
Maybe you shouldn't vote since they have cameras at the booth
Where are you that there are cameras in the booth?
At the booth
They have security cameras everywhere these days
That would be illegal in Australia and I have to imagine most functional democracies since it has the potential to link voters to votes and undermine the electoral process.
Welcome to mass surveillance. It is not illegal if it is in the name of crime stopping. Whats worse is that Australia has laws that require companies to back door everything.
Worth clarifying that it requires individuals to insert backdoors if told to, it's not a blanket backdoor and frankly I'd be shocked if it held up in the high court.
Nothing ever makes it there though, and it's full of baked in secrecy. I don't use local or US services for anything where privacy is important for that reason.
Good thing Australia doesn't have electronic voting, hey?
