- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

If it's a public room, all info is public. I don't understand it, sorry.
All info is not public. Your IP address is not public.
You don't publicly share private room info with anyone not associated wih the room
It doesn't have to be public to be subpoenaed by an authority.
That's not what you initially said. There's ahuge difference between a gov and a random server
My initial reply was 1000% about your Metadata being available for exploitation by the government.
Even if not directly, it will be used in computer models designed to profile you for further targeting like they already are in Pasco county.
