Not really, AFAIK the closest external actors can access is the general area based on the central you’re connected to.
Have you tried an IP lookup like What’s my IP?
Comment on What are the privacy risks of exposing IP adresses?
sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks agoIf the Police can come right to your door, I assume that your ISP has your home address linked to your IP. Could anyone else access it?

No I mean if the police can get a warrant to look up your billing info with the ISP, then the employees at the Isp must have some kind of access too. Can theoretically someone could hack in and steal the info.
Sure.

I’m not aware of any ISP that will accept payment other than a credit card, and your full billing details. Not to mention your CC company will also have that.
IP space is chopped up and allocated to companies so it’s not horribly hard to see what general area the IP is located from an open source security perspective. But law enforcement can warrant that info from the ISP and get your actual address.
