I’ve been using some available on the Internet but recently they all look the same and they all ask for CAPTYA which is an obvious attempt to obtain ones true IP.

I’m new to privacy and hoping to learn more.

https://ipleak.net/ is one that I use.

https://ifconfig.me/. Can also be be curl’d.

Easier to remember is to just search for what is my ip in clear net DuckDuckGo (or Kagi if you have it).

How exactly is a CAPTCHA supposed to discover your “true IP”?

Also note that your IP address is by far not the only thing used to fingerprint you. See https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/ and https://browserleaks.com/.

Use TOR browser if you want your starting conditions to be reasonably anonymous.

Even more critical for fingerprinting is user behaviour though.

Logging in to Kagi is a great way to deanonymize yourself on Tor.

That’s not what I discussed in this comment. On TOR browser, you don’t need some other service to tell you your public IP address as you can see the address of the exit node in your browser.
