The IP address is like the mailbox on your house. It's the only way mail can get delivered. If an IP could be blocked, you wouldn't be able to use the internet at all.
An IP address uniquely identifies a computer on the internet. Most are leased to ISPs, so that the ISP has control over giving these out to individuals. For that reason, from the IP address the police can locate the house, office, or coffee shop that any email was sent from. They can also tell what web pages you have viewed.
An IP address just tells you the location of a computer - it doesn't tell you what is on that machine. To do that, they have to connect to your computer with some kind of software to read your hard drive. If you have a firewall, that may prevent them doing so. If you have a NAT'd router, that almost certainly would prevent them from doing so. However, mostly they just ask for a search warrant, then take the machine away and take it apart. |

they can pretty much gain anything, hackers get caught when they find there ip adress, thats why they hack into someone elses computer and pretend there at that persons place
basically they can see where you are at the time
they could look at your files..
they say everything is personal on your computer, but on the internet, nothing is, theres 100s of programs watching everyone, my friend showed me this |

All personal information associated with the owner of the i.p address is obtainable by law enforcement, like name, home address, phone, credit card numbers, ect. quite easily. |

They can determine your location and what you're using to access the internet. I doubt if you can block it, even if you can, they're the government. They can get through anything! |

If your worried just use a proxy, like Proxify, it's free, but you gotta make sure to check your IP regularly to make sure your covered. Use, "Check my IP" it's free too. |

IP address can be found even if you have a firewall.
The government can call your internet service provider and get your IP address. They don't have to sleuth it from your wireless home network.
Or they can just sneak into your home when you are away at work and get it. In America there is no warrant or charges needed.
Also, if the government wants information on you, they won't need your IP address, they probably already have it.

any and everthing on your computer-even if theyre was a way to block it they have ways around that too-they can find deleted files from years back-to everything you currently got on your computer-if your computer has that much bad stuff on it-get a new computer,its about the only way ;) |

I have no problem with the Police finding out my IP address - they are very welcome to it. I may not trust them but as they are a public organisation I can sue them for doing anything with my web data that they shouldn't. |
