You're absolutely correct. It's P2P folks .. Point 2 Point. all it takes is a sniffer and You can see exactly who the host is your dealing with. I think it only fair that IP's be shown. If you're not doing anything destructive .. then don't worry .... get a firewall or switch to linux
All IP's are traceable and are a matter of public record for a damn good reason. If people could hide their IP's think of all the crap people would do and never get caught.
No I'm sorry I don't agree with hiding IP's at all.
