I’m just a guy hosting a monero forum and would never do any corpo privacy invasion bullshit with the monero.town data but the truth is that the instance is publicly accessible and on top of that federated so if anyone wants to scrape all the data, they easily could do it.

That is a nice detail, I think it would be useful to put it (after rephrasing) into T and C for law-minded anons…

saw that Lemmy has a built-in IP address anonymiser

This instance might use it but not malicious instances. So anons should be careful about clicking on fedded links.
