‘I Know What You Download‘ monitors torrent traffic around the clock and makes everything public. This means that you can see what information they store on the IP-address you currently have.
The site apparently currently has information on 460,000 torrents in its database plus 70 million unique IP-addresses captured during the last month alone. This makes it much larger than its predecessor.
Besides your own ip, you can get check the ip of your friends often gathered via their email properties from mails they have sent you, but this also depends on their setup.
If you however use a vpn, then the result is meaningless. More info can be found here https://torrentfreak.com/i-know-what-you-downloaded-on-bittorrent-161223/

Just because you are not on this list, does not mean you are on no list.

Seems to be only for people stupid enough to download torrents from publicly accessible trackers.0

Just checked my last 3 (going back 4 months) ISP dynamically provided IP addresses...

As mentioned its only useful if you have a static IP. How many people have a static IP and use Torrents without a VPN?
Shows my ISP as Cable and Wireless? Its actually Vodafone.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
