If you connect to anything on the internet, you’re giving out your IP address. Why would this be any more of a concern?

At this point Microsoft is a suspicious server, and any data they could get from this they could just like… pay for from one of our overlords
Users may consent to giving Microsoft their IP address but not to everyone who sends them a link
