Summary
Dave says what excites him about OP3 is seeing numbers outside the hosting dashboard. He warns everyone should know that on a long enough timescale, IP addresses stop being reliable information. Apple Private Relay, Tailscale exit nodes and Tor are the early signs.
Not in the audio. The final words 'probably going to go away.' are on an unknown-speaker cue that directly completes Dave's sentence.
