## IP address privacy
* there is an ongoing effort to integrate Tor into Monero wallet for transaction sending
* assurance: none at the moment - please use TOR or I2P
For the full node (`monerod`):
* dandelion++
* assurance: won't protect against ISP/VPN provider, won't protect against the very first remote node in Dandellion++ protocol
* optional transaction relay over Tor/I2P (block relay is being done on clearnet)
For the wallet (`monero-wallet-gui` or `monero-wallet-cli`):
* typically wallet runs on the same machine as full node so there is no risk
* if wallet connects to remote full node, there is no IP protection by default
* user must manually wrap wallet with Tor
