IP Address

An abbreviation of "Internet Protocol Address". Internet Protocol Addresses are assigned to every device connected to the internet (e.g. Wifi connected printers, computers, smartphones, etc) to distinguish them from each other. They are a series of random numbers separated by periods. The I.P. Address of your device can be tracked by websites that you visit using it. You can actually determine someone's approximate location if you obtain their I.P. Address by contacting the ISP that it belongs to. You can find information about your I.P. Address, someone else's I.P. address, or you can find the I.P. address of a website on myip.ms.
