Do iPhones have different IP addresses then laptops/computers?

I have been on KMC forums (killer movies) forums for a year now, and I just got banned, I created a new account and I tried to start new and fresh but I got somehow banned for socking "socking" means to create more accounts after your original? All this time I used my iphone 5, I created my original account with an iphone and used it with an iphone ever since,. I checked my ip for my phone on a website, it had where I lived and everything. What will happen if I reregister a new account on my laptop? Is the IP different there? I tried PMing the admin but he didn't even respond to my apology, do you think that creating a new account on a laptop will work?

It depends. If you are using your iphone's data plan then your ip will be different than your computers. If you are connecting using your wireless then all the devices will have the same public ip but different private IPs. You could try using an anonymous proxy to create a new account or you could setup a bnc (WinBNC or fpipe) on someone else's pc and pipe your traffic thru that pc. Of course you'd have to install it as a service and keep it hidden. TOR is slow and some sites detect your using it and won't let you register b/c someone else has already wreaked havoc on the site using onion routing.

Yes and no. Sometimes they can share. I would give it a shot

It depends which ISP you are using. If you are using your phone's mobile data connection over the cellular network, you will have a different public IP address from when you are connecting the phone to a Wi-Fi network.

If you use your home Wi-Fi network, you will have a different public IP compared with using Wi-Fi at your local McDonalds (other fast food joints also offer free Wi-Fi for customers, and all will have different public IP addresses).

If you use your laptop and your phone both using your home Wi-Fi, they will both have the same public address.

There are other ways of blocking access besides blocking an IP:

You can't use the same login details to the account.
The site may have installed a cookie or other marker on your device to say you are blocked.
If a site sees a different login coming from the same public IP, it might set a marker to block that device even if the device is used on a different public IP afterwards.

As many home users are given dynamic (changing) public IP addresses by their ISPs, IP blocking is not a good way of stopping someone using a site. They might block you on your public IP one day, but the next day some else can be using that address and you have a different one. With IP blocking, that other person would now be blocked and you would no longer be blocked.

  • Two different computers, two different iTunes.can I use the same Apple ID? I have iTunes on my computer that I use for my iPhone, and my mon just got an iPod Touch and wants me to fill it for her. I'm going to use her computer to do this, which currently does not have iTunes. Once I download iTunes, can I use my own Apple ID to download songs and apps onto her iPod? Is it possible to do that without disturbing what's on my phone, or do I have to make a whole new iTunes account for her?
  • Should we impose sin taxes on recreational items like TV's, iPhones, laptops, etc? Anti-smoking advocates want to tax cigarettes for their costs to society. Okay. How about all these items? They're often mass-produced using a lot of petroleum-based chemicals and plastics, they are designed to break easily and be obsolete quickly, they use a lot of resources, they lower workplace productivity, and so on. Rampant consumerism is doing way more damage to society as a whole than tobacco is. Should we impose a sin tax on this dangerous behavior?
