Another interesting one is to hit the "My Contributions" button on Wikipedia when you're not logged in. This will show you anonymous edits that have come from your IP address.

There are a lot of weird people who share my IP address editing a lot of weird stuff!

Also supports subnet notation, so you could add /24 to the end of the URL for example.

Interesting. If I use ProtonVPN, one of the Australian IPs is blocked globally.
