I wanna know if MATRIX recipients know my IP, and more globally what the recipients know about me (how the matrix protocol works). THX

So Matrix protocol is bad because criminals use it to distribute illegal content. That's the same as saying Tor is bad because people use it to do illegal things on the dark web. Matrix is just a protocol which powers a decentralized network. Is it better to have proprietary centralised platforms where a small number of people control everything?
