On the FFL website, as well as in all email clients, for practical and aesthetic purposes, only a few lines from an email header are displayed (From:, Date:, Subject:, etc.) You have latched onto the erroneous idea that because the rest of the header, including the IP address, is hidden, it is therefore private. As I explained in detail to you a few days ago, the complete header of any post in the FFL archives can be accessed by clicking "View Source". Headers, and any IP addresses they may contain, are therefore public information. That is the way it has always been, and unless Maitreya comes to delete all our IP addresses, it will remain that way for the foreseeable future. > My point is that I thought FFL was anonymous. FFL allows anonymity, but it is the sole responsibility of the anonymous user to maintain that anonymity. If that anonymity includes location as well as name, it is the user's responsibility to not send a location-revealing IP address in the headers of his posts.
