    Choosing to join a private server is very different from having your IP leaked on official servers.

        Being aware of the small risk you’re taking with one person (the server owner) versus being unaware of the risk you’re taking with many different random lobbies.

        Server owners are more likely to ban you than DDoS you. And it’s a single digit number of people with access to that information vs hundreds in random lobbies.

        The risk, while still small, is hundreds of times greater than a private server.
