When I google “my ip”, I get a onebox showing me my IP. Dose that not appear in your search results?

Its a search engine, you type your IP into the search bar at the top of the page

Same with Google “what is my ip”

for me, only "ip address" returned the public ip, search for "ip" didn't... on some national domains, both seem to work... YMMV :)

try "my ip"

It does not help.

It seems like Google decides what to show by IP address - not sure if it based on history of queries from that IP address or based on location of IP address. The same query from my college's day work (just a couple of miles away) gives different results.

if it doesn't work, try googling: ip address (search for "ip" doesn't return my public ip but search for "ip address" does)

Since they do content based filtering (sending a RST if they don't like the contents of your packet) the actual IP address of the server returning search results is irrelevant.

Cool, but the IP and associated search query are still stored, no?

i also noticed this in the past few weeks. google now tells you what your IP address is for "my ip", sweet!

I already did check my IP. It's not in any known list. But thanks :)

That is not my IP

I had nothing for my actual home IP, but if you want to see something fire up your VPN and see what they have listed for that IP ;)

Find My Ip is a convenient and easy to use macOS menu bar application, that shows your ip addresses, https://www.producthunt.com/posts/find-my-ip

You could compare your search results to a fresh browser on a new IP address.

How about your IP address?

baybal2 | karma 13766 | avg karma 1.35 · | 2019-10-22 13:45:45+00:00

Can you checkout you IP in google there?

It may be that Google uses location information from your IP address, which, for the Microsoft servers running the competition, is in Redmond. If you search "what is my ip address" in the competition, Google's results show "Your public IP address is 131.253.25.46" (or something similar). This is a Microsoft IP in Redmond. Interestingly, a reverse DNS query gives msnbot-131-253-25-46.search.msn.com as a domain name for this IP.

You put in your IP address?

I remember seeing this blog post and the updated docs suggest they no longer reveal your IP but enable WARP and visit https://www.whatismyip-address.com (uses Cloudflare) and you’ll see your actual IP.
