Someone on here just said he has a friend that tracks IPs. So does that mean that anyone can just find out who all of us are? If that's the case, is it best I never visit here again for my own safety and privacy?

They find ways around it. MFP can and will track IP's.1 -
Without knowing anything about how MFP operates, they can't be any worse than any other site or ISP. We should just assume that, unless stated otherwise as a selling point, everyone can (an probably does) track IP info and likely more. It's called metadata and is the cost of participating in this awesome thing called the internet.1
