my dad wrote down my ip address?
First off, i would like to know if he can view the websites i visit. Im not implying that i view anything horrible, but i view this as a huge breach in my privacy. What do you guys think he can do with an ip address? this is my ipad and my phone. ( both of which i bought myself).
Update:I'm 17

Your IP address is basically just the location of your computer. So your dad can find out where you live. If that's not scary, then you have nothing to worry about.
(It's very easy to find out someone's IP address. Wether they send you an e-mail, chat with you on MSN or post somethign online. They're not really that secret. But the most we can do is track it and find roughly what city they live in.)
Move out of the house into your own place. As long as you live at home your dad has every right to know what the hell you're doing. If you screw up he is liable for you. Once you are on your own you can do any damn thing you want.
it is possible to look at such things as internet history and stuff, but if he just randomly wrote down your ip address i would think that he was just doing something with the internet.
but if your dad is smart at computers then i would worry
