Hi,

Does anyone know which (if any) IRC server allows totally clean
access, with no logins/emails etc required.

Also, no display of IP address on *whois* would be great.

Thanks.

Most servers don’t require logins but just use them for nick
reservation.

You can also cover your IP by using a bouncer.

Keep in mind IRC is public and not designed for extreme secure
communication.

Make your own damn TPS reports. If you get them done by 4, we'll let
you get a kick in on the office printer.

Many at least mask the IP address of users but Admins/IRCops generally
can see the IP.   If your only worried about normal users seeing it
then there's many  servers.

I agree with that.

A few networks requires registered users, but generaly you can access
any IRC server without registration, unless you want to protect your
nick.

And most networks cloak your IP so normal users can't see it.

ircd.chat/6697 ssl

also tor onions available as CNAMEs at

* tor1.ircd.chat
* tor2.ircd.chat
* tor3.ircd.chat

host masking (hidden IP) on by default, can be disabled by setting
/mode -x on yourself (for vanity domains mainly)
