gikopoipoi.net is not some random user. that is like saying heyuri.net is some random user. (gikopoi.com however IS ran by a random and vindictive user)
Both gikopoipoi.net and heyuri are known trustworthy sites. No one expects any of their info to fall into anyone's hands except the site's staff. And certainly no one expects their data to be handled by a user of those sites.
Not that an IP address alone is anything really special.
And you talking about MITM is quite insane, no one is MITMing your japanese cat chatroom game.
I just think it is a little silly that the security inherent with known and trusted services is lost because of a few torposters and people who's vpn providers suck can't use the trusted sites.(I just logged into giko using the built-in opera free vpn and it worked. That is the MOST blocked vpn so yes, your vpn sux) Then you want to essentially force all normal users into using tor or a vpn (inconvenience them) to have the same basic expectation of security that they would have been able to have without any special software while on known trusted sites when visiting an unaccountable user's instance.
Not that the user running a giko instance would actually do anything bad with your ips or share them but the possibility exists.
It is more of a philosophical security issue than a technical one. You are full of yourself if you think your ip is really so special and secret that you need to use a vpn for something like gikopoipoi.net or heyuri to begin with, unless you are a serial ban evader or something.
