> If you wanted to do that, you could just set up port forwarding on your router and have people connect directly.
But that would expose their IP address. It’s easier to just use your bore.pub server and hide their IP address. If you don’t want to add authentication to the bore.pub server, I hope you have really good logging.
The server does have fairly good logging of each connection, including source IPs — feel free to contribute if you see anything that could be improved on this end though.

You may also want to record source ports and timestamps as many people are behind CGNATs.
