Tips and questions
What is reverse DNS?
It is the name linked to an IP, like one.one.one.one for 1.1.1.1. It often shows which company runs it.
What is a private IP?
Numbers like 192.168.x.x are used inside homes and offices. People on the internet cannot reach them directly.
Can it show where someone lives?
No. An IP points to an internet company, not to a home.
Privacy
The details are worked out in your browser. The name is fetched from Cloudflare's public DNS, not from Wivrix.
